Functional Descriptions:

• The LATERAL ROOT DENSITY(LRD) gene regulates root growth during water stress in wheat
• LRD can be potentially useful for improving wheat response to water stress and altering yield components.
• Transcript level of LATERAL ROOT DENSITY (LRD) gene under limited water in the Agropyron translocation line confers it the ability to maintain root growth.
• Wheat LRD, a KNAT3 homolog, negatively regulates root growth during water stress.
• LRD RNAi mutants maintain stomatal conductance under water stress.
• Pleiotropic effect of LRD on yield components.
