Sentence examples for cortex of the root from inspiring English sources

Thus, the extra Na+ is transported back across the endodermis to the cortex of the root, and stored in the extra Na+ sink created by the cortical cells expressing AtHKT1 1.

The aim of experiments described in the current work was to determine if overexpression of AtHKT1 1 specifically within the outer cells (epidermis and cortex) of the root would result in opposite effects to overexpression in the stele, or whether a similar improvement of Na+ exclusion and salinity tolerance of Arabidopsis and rice would be observed.
