This project studies how soil compaction affects root branching in plants, focusing on the hormonal interactions involved. It aims to identify genetic pathways that could enhance crop resilience to compacted soil conditions.
Soil compaction is a major constraint on root growth, reducing lateral root branching and limiting plant access to water and nutrients.
While the physical effects of compaction are well documented, the hormonal and genetic mechanisms underlying root responses—particularly lateral root branching—remain largely unexplored.
Auxin is a central regulator of lateral root development, but how auxin signaling interacts with mechanical stress to influence branching is not well understood.
