“…Homologs of those genes have been shown to control root hair development in several other species including Physcomitrella patens (Jang et al , 2011), Brachypodium distachyon (Kim and Dolan, 2016), rice (Kim et al , 2017), and Marchantia polymorpha (Proust et al , 2016). Further genes encoding bHLH transcription factors including rsl2 , rsl3 , rsl4 , and ljrhl1-like 3 ( lrl3 ) are direct targets of RHD6 and RSL1 driving the development of root hairs (Yi et al , 2010; Bruex et al , 2012).…”
