| plant roots | The usually underground portions of a plant that serve as support, store food, and through which water and mineral nutrients enter the plant. (12 Dec 1998) |

| roots of olfactory tract | Lateral and medial, the two fibre bands that form the caudal continuation of the olfactory tract which, upon diverging, enclose the olfactory tubercle. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| roots of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Collective term for the sensory root of trigeminal nerve and motor root of trigeminal nerve. Synonym: radices nervi trigemini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| motor roots of submandibular ganglion | <anatomy, nerve> Motor roots of submandibular ganglion; communicating branches between submandibular ganglion and lingual nerve. Synonym: rami communicantes ganglii submandibularis cum nervo linguali, motor roots of submandibular ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cranial roots | <anatomy, nerve> The roots of the accessory nerve which arise from the medulla; the nerve fibres of the cranial root join the intracranial portion of the vagus nerve and are distributed to the pharyngeal plexus, providing the motor innervation of the soft palate (except the tensor veli palati) and the pharynx. Synonym: pars vagalis nervi accessorii, radices craniales, accessory portion of spinal accessory nerve, cranial roots, vagal part of accessory nerve, vagal part. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spinal nerve roots | The paired bundles of nerve fibres entering and leaving the spinal cord at each segment. The dorsal and ventral nerve roots join to form the mixed segmental spinal nerves. The dorsal roots are generally afferent, formed by the central projections of the spinal (dorsal root) ganglia sensory cells, and the ventral roots efferent, comprising the axons of spinal motor and autonomic preganglionic neurons. There are, however, some exceptions to this afferent/efferent rule. (12 Dec 1998) |
| olfactory roots | Three distinct fibre bands (stria medialis, stria intermedia, stria lateralis) that caudally extend the olfactory tract beyond its attachment to the olfactory trigone. The medial stria curves dorsally into the tenia tecta; the intermediate, often barely visible, extends straight back and terminates in the olfactory tubercle; the lateral olfactory stria, the largest of the three, passes along the lateral side of the olfactory tubercle, curving laterally as far as the limen insulae, then sharply medially to reach the uncus of the parahippocampal gyrus where it terminates in the plexiform layer of the olfactory cortex. See: medial longitudinal stria. Synonym: striae olfactoriae, olfactory roots. (05 Mar 2000) |
| air plant | <botany> A plant deriving its sustenance from the air alone; an aerophyte. The "Florida moss" (Tillandsia), many tropical orchids, and most mosses and lichens are air plants. Those which are lodged upon trees, but not parasitic on them, are epiphytes. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| aquatic plant | <botany> Plants that must grow in water whether rooted in the mud or floating without anchorage, plants that must complete part or all of their life cycle in or near the water. (09 Oct 1997) |
| C3 plant | <plant biology> Plants that fix carbon dioxide in photosynthesis by the Calvin Benson cycle. The enzyme responsible for carbon dioxide fixation is RuDP carboxylase, whose products are compounds containing three carbon atoms. C3 plants are typical of temperate climates. Photorespiration in these plants is high. (07 Nov 1997) |
| C4 plant | <plant biology> Plants found principally in hot climates whose initial fixation of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis is by the HSK pathway. The enzyme responsible is PEP carboxylase, whose products contain four carbon atoms. Subsequently the carbon dioxide is released and re fixed by the Calvin Benson cycle. The presence of the HSK pathway permits efficient photosynthesis at high light intensities and low carbon dioxide concentrations. most species of this type have little or no photorespiration. (21 Mar 1998) |
| vascular plant | A plant which possesses a well-developed system of conducting tissue to transport water, mineral salts and sugars. (09 Oct 1997) |
| gene expression regulation, plant | Any of the processes by which nuclear, cytoplasmic, or intercellular factors influence the differential control of gene action in plants. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genes, plant | The hereditary material of plants. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genes, structural, plant | DNA sequences that code for RNA and for the proteins required for the enzymatic and structural function of plant cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genome, plant | The complete gene complement contained in a set of chromosomes in a plant. (12 Dec 1998) |
