Morphological and anatomical analyses of maize primary, seminal, and crown roots. (A) Growth of the three root types within 16 d after germination (n=30 per time point; error bars indicate ±SD). (B) Transverse sections of the proximal parts of 20mm long roots of each type stained with toluidine blue. Scale bars=200 μm. (C) Quantification of root anatomical traits in transverse sections of the three root types (P<0.05, n=15; error bars indicate ±SD). PR, primary roots; SR, seminal roots; CR, crown roots.
