Can blocking a gene enhance drought resistance in crops? RRS1 inhibits root growth in plants, so blocking the gene can improve water absorption & enhance drought resistance. Read more on the @NewPhyt research in @physorg_com. ow.ly/zrCl50NkoWk

Blocking gene that inhibits root growth may enhance drought resistance in crops

A strong root system allows crops to absorb water and nutrients from the soil, but scientists have little information about the genes that control root development. Recent research published in New...
