Sentence examples for modification of root from inspiring English sources

Exposure to CuONPs resulted in suppression of shoot-growth, reduction in total chlorophyll and carotenoids contents as well modification of root system architecture such as shortening of primary and lateral roots.

To cope with suboptimal Pi conditions, plants have developed a series of adaptive responses, such as induction of Pi transporters and modification of root system architecture (Raghothama, 1999; Lin et al., 2009; Wu et al., 2013).

Repression of genes participating in cell wall and protein synthesis might be relevant for the modification of root architecture, a characteristic response in P-starved roots [ 29- 32].

Plants have evolved diverse strategies to obtain adequate P under limiting conditions; these include molecular, biochemical, physiological and morphological responses such as modification of root architecture and expansion of root area [ 28- 31].

The data analysis showed that auxin signaling participated in the response to low-phosphate conditions and the modification of root morphology, and LOB (Lateral organ boundaries) domain proteins might represent an intermediary between auxin signaling and root morphology.

Modulating the expression of the genes involved in the synthesis and remodeling of cell wall components could allow the modification of root mechanical properties to produce stronger root systems that have a better capacity to penetrate compacted soils.

Although no partner differentiation takes place, it makes sense that during evolution, modifications of root phenotypic properties facilitating bacterial nitrogen fixation and thereby the supply of available nitrogen to the plant could have been selected.

Extensive modifications of root cell walls, as substantiated by cell wall outgrowth and induction of genes encoding cell wall synthesizing, loosening and degrading enzymes, may facilitate the uptake of microbes into root cells.

Altogether, our results indicate that uptake of microbes by roots occurs through major structural modifications of root cells controlled by the plant, including outgrowth of a cell-wall like structure capturing microbes, and degradation and/or loosening of cell walls with plant-derived enzymes.

First, the direct Pi acquisition pathway acts through modifications of root architecture, root length and lateral root numbers [ 42- 44].
