The hidden architecture of symbiosis: Casparian strips in root and nodule integration
The Casparian strip (CS), a lignin-rich apoplastic barrier in the root endodermis, forms early in development and regulates solute flow between the soil and the vasculature. It allows plants to control ion uptake, defend against pathogens, and coordinate developmental signals. While its functions in these processes are well studied, its role in root nodule symbiosis has remained elusive. Source
