dc.description.abstractAlthough roots play an integral role in the sensing and amelioration of environmenatl stresses, there are no reports that specifically detail their involvement in the desiccation tolerance mechanisms of resurrection plants. Very lttle is known about even the genral anatomy and physiology of the roots of plants such as X. humilis, and almost nothing about the molecular responses that confer their ability to survive desiccation. This report details foundational studies of the functional anatomy and large-scale molecular responses of the roots during dehydrtion and rehydration.en_ZA
