Studying the regulatory mechanisms controlling hydrotropism and moisture regulated gene expression in roots.

Roots respond to various environmental stimuli and water in one of them. Under water stress, roots re-orientate and grow towards the side with higher water potential and this is known as hydrotropism. Regulatory molecules such as abscisic acid (ABA) and auxin play a important role in hydrotropism an...
