Morphological and physiological characteristics of a root-hairless mutant in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

This paper reports morphological and physiological characteristics of a first root-hairless mutant (RH2) of rice (Oryza sativa L.), which can be useful in advancing knowledge on the role of root hairs in water and nutrient uptake, and genetics of root hairs. The mutant was selected among NaN₃ mutagenized progeny of the rice cultivar Oochikara. Microscopic observations showed absence of root hairs in RH2. At the seedling stage, RH2 showed shorter seedling height and shorter roots compared to the wild type variety Oochikara. Because of the differences in seedling growth, all comparisons between Oochikara and RH2 in uptake-related characters were made on the basis of values adjusted by the dry weight of either the shoot or the root. When grown at low water potential in soil, Oochikara and RH2 were similar in shoot water content and transpiration per unit shoot dry weight, and similarly, at low water potential in solution culture, there was no significant difference between Oochikara and RH2 in transpiration per unit shoot dry weight. These results suggest that at the seedling stage, root hairs do not significantly contribute to uptake of water. In solution culture, Oochikara and RH2 did not significantly differ in phosphate uptake per unit root dry weight. This result supports the previous work that root hairs do not contribute to phosphate uptake in solution culture. Regarding to response to plant hormones, RH2 showed a higher level of resistance to two synthetic auxins, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) than Oochikara. NAA treatment induced very short root hairs in RH2, suggesting that the absence of root hairs in RH2 may be due to a shortage of endogenous auxin. Genetic analysis showed that the root hairless character in RH2 is inherited as a single recessive gene.     

Root morphology and cadmium uptake kinetics of the cadmium-sensitive rice mutant

To understand the physiological mechanism that confers Cd sensitivity, root morphology and Cd uptake kinetics of the Cd-sensitive mutant and wild type rice were investigated. The root length, root surface area, and root number of mutant rice decreased more significantly with increasing Cd concentration in growth media compared with the wild type rice. The uptake kinetics for ¹⁰⁹Cd²⁺ in roots of both the mutant and wild type rice were characterized by a rapid linear phase during the first 6 h and a slower linear phase during the subsequent period. Concentration-dependent Cd²⁺ influx in both species could be characterized by the Michaelis-Menten equation, with similar apparent K_m values for mutant and wild type rice (2.54 and 2.37 μM, respectively). However, the V_max for Cd²⁺ influx in mutant root cells was nearly 2-fold higher than that for wild type rice, indicating that enhanced absorption into the root is one of the mechanisms involved in Cd sensitivity in mutant rice.     

水稻短根突变体Osksr6的遗传分析和基因定位

Contrasting phosphate acquisition of mycorrhizal fungi with that of root hairs using the root hairless barley mutant

Comparisons between plant species or cultivars differing in root hair length have indicated a major impact of root hairs on the mycorrhizal dependency of plants with respect to phosphate (P) uptake. The current study aimed to investigate this relationship by comparing directly the mycorrhizal dependency of a spontaneous root hairless mutant, brb , in Hordeum vulgare cv Pallas and its wild type. Both brb and wild type were grown at different soil P levels in association with different mycorrhizal fungi. P uptake of brb and wild type was similar at high P levels, but P uptake by non-mycorrhizal brb plants at low P levels was substantially lower than that of the non-mycorrhizal wild-type plants. However, P uptake of the mutant was much increased by mycorrhizas and with one fungus, the additional P uptake was effectively translated into increased plant growth. Roots of the mutant contained typical colonization structures and a radioactive tracer confirmed P transport by the extraradical mycelium. This is the first direct evaluation of the relative effectiveness of root hairs and mycorrhizas. Mycorrhizas effectively substituted root hairs in P uptake, whereas the additional P was most often used less effectively in promoting plant growth than P provided by root hairs.     

粪产碱菌（Alcaligenes faecalis）对稻根氧化还原特性及水稻多元酚和内根际激素水平的影响

Nitric oxide is essential for vesicle formation and trafficking in Arabidopsis root hair growth

The functions of nitric oxide (NO) in processes associated with root hair growth in Arabidopsis were analysed. NO is located at high concentrations in the root hair cell files at any stage of development. NO is detected inside of the vacuole in immature actively growing root hairs and, later, NO is localized in the cytoplasm when they become mature. Experiments performed by depleting NO in Arabidopsis root hairs indicate that NO is required for endocytosis, vesicle formation, and trafficking and it is not involved in nucleus migration, vacuolar development, and transvacuolar strands. The Arabidopsis G'4,3 mutant (double mutant nia1/nia2) is severely impaired in NO production and generates smaller root hairs than the wild type (WT). Root hairs from the Arabidopsis G'4,3 mutant show altered vesicular trafficking and are reminiscent of NO-depleted root hairs from the Arabidopsis WT. Interestingly, normal vesicle formation and trafficking as well as root hair growth is restored by exogenous NO application in the Arabidopsis G'4,3 mutant. All together, these results firmly support the essential role played by NO in the Arabidopsis root-hair-growing process.

The role of root system architecture and root hairs in promoting anchorage against uprooting forces in Allium cepa and root mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana.

The role played by lateral roots and root hairs in promoting plant anchorage, and specifically resistance to vertical uprooting forces has been determined experimentally. Two species were studied, Allium cepa (onion) which has a particularly simple root system and two mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana, one without root hairs (rhd 2-1) and another with reduced lateral root branching (axr 4-2). Maximum strength of individual onion roots within a plant increased with plant age. In uprooting tests on onion seedlings, resistance to uprooting could be resolved into a series of events associated with the breakage of individual roots. Peak pulling resistance was explained in a regression model by a combination of a measure of plant size and the extent to which the uprooting resistance of individual roots was additive. This additive effect is termed root co-operation. A simple model is presented to demonstrate the role played by root co-operation in uprooting resistance. In similar uprooting tests on Arabidopsis thaliana, the mutant axr 4-2, with very restricted lateral development, showed a 14% reduction in peak pulling resistance when compared with the wild-type plants of similar shoot dry weight. The uprooting force trace of axr 4-2 was different to that of the wild type, and the main axis was a more significant contributor to anchorage than in the wild type. By contrast, the root hair-deficient mutant rhd 2-1 showed no difference in peak pulling resistance compared with the wild type, suggesting that root hairs do not normally play a role in uprooting resistance. The results show that lateral roots play an important role in anchorage, and that co-operation between roots may be the most significant factor.     

Anoxia Tolerance in a Root Hair Defective Mutant of Rice

Anoxia tolerance of rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings was investigated using wild type (WT) and root hair defective mutant RH2. The elongation of both RH2 and WT roots was suppressed by anoxia, but this suppression was less in RH2 than in WT roots. The anoxic treatment increased the activity of alcohol dehydrogenase in both RH2 and WT roots, but the induction was greater in RH2 roots. These results suggest that anoxia tolerance of RH2 roots is greater than that of WT roots, indicating that root hairs may interfere with the anoxia tolerance of rice roots.
