Zusammenfassung: | <jats:title>Significance</jats:title> <jats:p>Plant roots function as an interface between plants and the complex soil environment. Root systems of higher plants consist of different root types (RTs) that maximize their adaptive potential in heterogenous soil for nutrient uptake and anchorage. This study pioneers the molecular examination of individual RTs of adult rice root systems. The global signature of the transcriptional activity of each RT reveals significant quantitative and qualitative differences that predict functional diversity and specialization. Interaction with naturally prevalent beneficial mycorrhizal fungi profoundly modulated the relationship across the RTs such that the crown root transcriptome resembled that of lateral roots. The alteration of secondary cell wall synthesis in colonized roots is consistent with previously reported changes in root system architecture of mycorrhizal plants.</jats:p> |
