Effects of Low Water Potential on Cortical Cell Length in Growing Regions of Maize Roots

Roots growing under low water potential commonly exhibit a marked decrease in growth rate and in diameter. Using median longitudinal sections of fixed maize (Zea mays L. cv WF9 × Mo 17) seedling roots, we investigated the cellular basis for these effects. Cortical cells in the shortened elongation z...
