This project investigates how plants adapt their root systems to water availability, particularly under drought conditions. It focuses on the role of aquaporins and phytohormones in root growth and architecture, aiming to enhance crop resilience to climate change.
Plants have to constantly adjust their water status during development and in response to very changing environmental conditions, recently increased by climate change.
By exploring the soil and taking up water, plant roots play a crucial role in these processes.
Drought exerts deep effects on root functions by altering root cell water permeability (hydraulics) and modulating the growth and architecture of the root system.
Water channel proteins named aquaporins adjust root hydraulics in response…
