Evidence for a multicellular symplasmic water pumping mechanism across vascular plant roots

The paper demonstrates a multicellular symplasmic water pumping mechanism in vascular plant roots by incorporating solute concentration gradients into water flow models, resolving a long-standing enigma about water movement uphill of water potential gradients.

MARSHAL, a novel tool for virtual phenotyping of maize root system hydraulic architectures

The paper introduces MARSHAL, a tool for generating and analyzing maize root system hydraulic architectures, compatible with observations and useful for virtual breeding.

Connecting the dots between computational tools to analyse soil-root water relations
