A lignin-derived material improves plant nutrient bioavailability and growth through its metal chelating capacity

To pinpoint the molecular and biological processes that are targeted by HSAL and lead to enhanced root growth in nutrient poor environments. We performed a genome-wide transcript analysis of the root tip of 7-day-old seedlings treated with or without HSAL for 12 h using RNA-seq. Overall design: Comparative gene expression profiling analysis of RNA-seq data for the Oryza Sativa L root tip of 7-day-old seedlings treated with or without HSAL for 12 h.
