It was an incredible opportunity to present my work at #rhizosphere6 !
"Modeling water uptake : influence of secondary growth, hydrophobic barriers and developmental anatomy on root hydraulic properties"
We couple functional models with experiments to better understand plant water uptake 🪴

New preprint from @stephanevrg.bsky.social 's lab!
🧪 Simulations + mutant tests show a shift in how we think about plant cell adhesion, challenging "textbook" view on the role of middle lamella.

Juan collected root hydraulic data from the literature & compiled it into a shared database (roothydraulic-properties.shinyapps.io/database).

Home environment predicts root anatomy in Mexican native maize. (a) Random forest (RF) modeling for the ratio of total stele area:total cortical area. Accession point of origin colored by observed TSA:TCA from Burton et al. (2013). Trait-specific significant environmental descriptors used for RF model construction. Smoothed RF predicted TSA:TCA for native Mexican maize. (b) RF predicted vs observed TSA:TCA values for all individuals used in model training and validation. (c) Composite GRANAR representation of observed (obs) and predicted (pred) GRANAR sections for the accessions with the lowest (low, pink) and highest (high, green) observed TSA:TCA. Predicted GRANAR cross-sections use predictions for all traits for which RF models were constructed. Hydraulic properties were estimated with MECHA
🌽Check out the fascinating role of root anatomical variation in maize adaptation to diverse climates and soils. 🌾
Congrats to Chloee: chloeemclaughlin.wordpress.com and the other co-authors.
A nice paper just before the defense of her PhD
