Examines structure and development, assemblage of plant root systems, their metabolism and growth, stressful environments, and interactions at the rhizosphere. This book presents developments in the study of root origin, composition, formation, and behavior for the production of novel pharmaceutical and medicinal compounds, and agrochemicals.
The third edition of a standard resource, this book offers a state-of-the-art, multi-disciplinary presentation of plant roots. It examines structure and development, assemblage of root systems, metabolism and growth, stressful environments, and interactions at the rhizosphere. Reflecting the explosion of advances and emerging technologies in the field, the book presents developments in the study of root origin, composition, formation, and behavior for the production of novel pharmaceutical and medicinal compounds, agrochemicals, dyes, flavors, and pesticides. It details breakthroughs in genetics, molecular biology, growth substance physiology, biotechnology, and biomechanics.

The origin and characteristics of roots: the origin of roots; characteristics and functions of root systems. The root system - structure and development: the root cap - structure and function; cellular patterning in root meristems - its origins andsignificance. Root genetics: maize root system and genetic analysis of its formation; root architecture - wheat as a model plant. Research techniques for root studies: root research methods; aeroponics - a tool for root research under minimalenvironmental restrictions. The regulation of root growth: auxins in the biology of roots; gibberellins. Physiological aspects of root systems: respiratory patterns in roots in relation to their functioning; root pH regulation.
