Growth of the Maize Primary Root at Low Water Potentials : I. Spatial Distribution of Expansive Growth

Seedlings of maize (Zea mays L. cv WF9 × Mo 17) were grown in vermiculite at various water potentials. The primary root continued slow rates of elongation at water potentials which completely inhibited shoot growth. To gain an increased understanding of the root growth response, we examined the spat...
