Plant roots use a patterning mechanism to position lateral root branches toward available water
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Few studies have asked at what spatial scale environmental stimuli regulate plant development and when during the patterning process these signals act. We have discovered that plant roots can sense microscale heterogeneity in water availability across their circumference, which causes dramatic differences in the patterning of tissues along this axis. Root branching is a target of such hydropatterning; lateral roots only form on the side of the main root contacting water in soil or agar. We show that hydropatterning is a conserved process in Arabidopsis , maize, and rice and reveal the importance of auxin biosynthesis and transport in regulating this process.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
