Cytoskeleton and Root Hair Growth
... Root hairs are highly polarized outgrowths of a subset of root epidermis cells, the socalled trichoblasts. The biological function of root hairs is to increase the surface area of roots in order to facilitate the absorption of water and nutrients from soil. Root hairs are also the site of initial in ...
