A plant’s roots serve as a major line of defense against environmental stress to protect the plant as a whole. Roots of diverse plant species have found ways to deal with stress by devising responses, often within individual cell types, to resist drought, flooding, mineral deficiencies and other insults that impair plant growth. I will present my lab’s research that uses systems, synthetic and developmental biology approaches to interrogate the transcriptional networks that function in response to nutrient availability, water deficit and parasitic plants in the tomato and sorghum exodermis and endodermis.
