#newpaper: Root developmental zonation is independent of cell wall pH
The paper shows that while on the organ level apoplast acidification promotes root growth, the cellular surface pH and strain rate profiles are largely independent of each other.

Root developmental zonation is independent of cell wall pH - Nature Plants
The authors developed a cell wall-anchored pH sensor and found that the cell elongation profile does not correlate with cell wall acidification in Arabidopsis roots. At the same time, cell wall pH cha...
