Abstract: Impacts of polyvinylpyrrolidine-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on root gravitropism in Arabidopsis thaliana were investigated at the physiological, cellular, and molecular levels. Our results showed that AgNPs were taken up by the root and primarily localized… read more here.

Abstract: Significance Plants use the Earth’s gravitational field to orient their growth, but there are large gaps in our understanding of the mechanism. We measured thousands of corn seedling roots, changing their growth direction in response… read more here.
