Tobacco plants under low phosphate exhibited increased total and tap root length, as a result of higher apex activity, but decreased root branching in comparison to the plants grown with high-Pi. The possible mechanisms and significance of these alterations, which differed from those typical of stress-induced morphogenetic responses, are discussed.

Abstract

Tobacco plants under low phosphate exhibited increased total and tap root length, as a result of higher apex activity, but decreased root branching in comparison to the plants grown with high-Pi. The possible mechanisms and significance of these alterations, which differed from those typical of stress-induced morphogenetic responses, are discussed.
