The cultivation of many crops relies on the formation of chimeric plants, where roots from one variety are grafted onto the shoot of another. A new study uncovers how two plants connect and demonstrates that the root and shoot do not contribute equally to the union.
许多作物的种植都依赖于嵌合体植物的形成，即将一个品种的根嫁接到另一个品种的茎上。一项新的研究揭示了两种植物是如何连接的，并表明根和茎在联合中并没有平等贡献。
