Abstract

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by an NADPH oxidase (NOX) encoded by AtrbohC/RHD2 is required for root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana. ROP (RHO of plants) GTPases are also required for normal root hair growth and have been proposed to regulate ROS production in plants. Therefore, the role of ROP GTPase in NOX-dependent ROS formation by root hairs was investigated. Plants overexpressing wild-type ROP2 (ROP2 OX), constitutively active (CA-rop2), or dominant negative (DN-rop2) rop2 mutant proteins were used. Superoxide formation by root hairs was detected by superoxide dismutase-sensitive nitroblue tetrazolium reduction, and ROS production in the root hair differentiation zone was detected by dihydrofluorescein diacetate oxidation. Both probes showed that ROS production was increased in ROP2 OX and CA-rop2 plants, and decreased in DN-rop2 plants, relative to wild-type plants. When CA-rop2 was expressed in the NOX loss-of-function rhd2-1 mutant, ROS formation and root hair growth were impaired, suggesting that RHD2 is required for this ROP2-dependent ROS formation.

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.
