lateral root


Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia.

lateral root

or

secondary root

the branches that develop from deep inside the plant root (i.e. are ENDOGENOUS) where cells of the PERICYCLE become meristematic (see MERISTEM and produce a growing point which differentiates into mature tissues. Such branching occurs behind the root hair zone and is initiated by AUXIN.
