For each lateral root (ordered in decreasing length of the division zone), the piecewise linear function (cell lengths predicted at both ends of a zone –division zone (DZ), elongation zone (EZ) and mature zone (MZ)− linked by an arrow, limits between zones and position of the most shootward cell in μm) with associated rootward and shootward confidence intervals at each limit between zones (between brackets) is given.
