Laterals take it better – Emerging and young lateral roots survive lethal salinity longer than the primary root in Arabidopsis

Abstract Plant responses to salinity have been extensively studied over the last decades. Despite the vast accumulated knowledge, the ways Arabidopsis lateral roots (LR) cope with lethal salinity has not been fully resolved. Here we compared the primary root (PR) and the LR responses during events l...
