Article
Soil salinity is a major contributor to crop yield losses. To improve our understanding of root responses to salinity, we developed and exploited a real-time salt-induced tilting assay. This assay follows root growth upon both gravitropic and salt challenges, revealing that root bending upon tilting is modulated by Na+ ions, but not by osmotic stre...

Salinity stress constrains lateral root (LR) growth and severely affects plant growth. Auxin signaling regulates LR formation, but the molecular mechanism by which salinity affects root auxin signaling and whether salt induces other pathways that regulate LR development remains unknown. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the auxin-regulated transcription fac...

Salinity stress constrains lateral root (LR) growth and severely impacts plant growth. Auxin signaling is indispensable for the regulation of LR formation. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanism of how salinity affects root auxin signaling and whether salt would steer alternative pathway(s) to regulate LR development is unknown. Here we show that th...

Soil salinity is a major contributor to crop yield losses. To improve our understanding of root responses to salinity, we developed and exploit here a real-time salt-induced tilting assay (SITA). This method follows root growth upon both gravitropic and salt challenges and revealed that root bending is modulated by salinity, but not by osmotic stre...

Increasing soil salinization largely impacts crop yield worldwide. To deal with salinity stress, plants exhibit an array of responses, including root system architecture (RSA) remodeling. Here, we review recent progress in physiological, developmental and cellular mechanisms of root growth responses to salinity. Most recent research in modulation o...
