Root Water transport in roots
Shipunov (MSU) Introduction to Botany. Lecture 28 November 13, 2017 15 / 46 Root Water transport in roots Rhizodermis and osmosis
The existence of root hairs dramatically increases the surface of absorption Every root hair cell increase the internal concentration of large molecules, typically organic acids Process of concentration requires ATP As a result, osmosis water flow starts from soil to root cells
Shipunov (MSU) Introduction to Botany. Lecture 28 November 13, 2017 16 / 46 Root Water transport in roots Endodermis and root pressure
From rhizodermis to endodermis, transport of water is both symplastic and apoplastic In the endodermis cells, Caspari stripes stop apoplastic transport and therefore forced symplastic transport This is a high-energetic process requires ATP As a result, water will be pushed up from root: this is the root pressure

Shipunov (MSU) Introduction to Botany. Lecture 28 November 13, 2017 35 / 46 Root Diversity of roots Summary
Vascular tissues of root is a modified protostele or solenostele (monocots). Root hairs, Casparian strips, capillarity and transpiration work together to make water flow in plant. Root-related part of water flow is the root pressure. Roots have not less modifications than leaves.
