This study identifies E1OGDH1 as a gene influencing maize root system architecture and nitrogen plasticity through genetic and functional analyses.

This study examines how four decades of maize breeding and increased planting density have altered root system architecture, showing smaller roots but greater soil exploration in modern hybrids.

This paper uses persistent homology to analyze plant morphology across different organs and scales, finding that genetic factors affect both shoot and root structures in tomato plants.
