Prolonged cold stress has a strong effect on plant growth and development, especially in subtropical crops such as maize. Soil temperature limits primary root elongation, mainly during early seedling establishment. However, little is known about how moderate temperature fluctuations affect root growth at the molecular and physiological levels. We have studied root tips of young maize seedlings grown hydroponically at 30 ºC and after a short period (up to 24 h) of moderate cooling (20 ºC). We found that both cell division and cell elongation in the root apical meristem are affected by temperature. Time-course analyses of hormonal and transcriptomic profiles were achieved after temperature reduction from 30 ºC to 20 ºC. Our results highlighted a complex regulation of endogenous pathways leading to adaptive root responses to moderate cooling conditions. |
