OsCSLD1, a cellulose synthase-like D1 gene, is required for root hair morphogenesis in rice.
Root hairs are long tubular outgrowths that form on the surface of specialized epidermal cells. They are required for nutrient and water uptake and interact with the soil microflora. Here we show that the Oryza sativa cellulose synthase-like D1 (OsCSLD1) gene is required for root hair development, a...
