Coordination of root growth with root morphology, physiology and defense functions in response to root pruning in Platycladus orientalis

Introduction: Root pruning is commonly used to facilitate seedling transplantation for the restoration of degraded or damaged ecosystems. However, little is known about how root growth coordinates morphology, physiology and defense functions following root pruning. Objectives: We aim to elucidate wh...
