Towards structural characterisation of ciliary rootlets, ciliary caps and intraflagellar transport
… I set out to purify recombinant and native rootlets for analysis with EM and cryo-ET to analyse the rootlet structure and ultrastructure. Tomograms of purified mouse photoreceptor cell rootlets showed a longitudinal periodicity with an amorphous striation and three confined striations each …

3D Nanoscale Architecture and Physiology of the Human Airway Epithelium
… novel organelle–cytoskeletal interaction between rootlets – a cytoskeletal structure emanating from the base of the motile cilium – and the mitochondrial network. Despite their conserved morphology, the function of rootlets and their interaction with the mitochondria in human airway epithelial …

Hydrogeology of the Kalahari in north-eastern Namibia
… recharge develops along shrinkage cracks and rootlets. Five substratum classes have been soil physically studied: Pans and vleis, brown to red soils, dune sand, soil with an aeolian influence, and calcrete. Aeolian sands are most promising for the development of direct diffuse recharge. …

Succession of ectomycorrhizal fungi associated with Engelmann spruce and subalpine fir in Wyoming
… Low numbers of sporocarps and mycorrhizal rootlets were collected from the young stand. It seems evident from this study that a more diverse assemblage of higher fungi is present in mature and old-age forests and a progressive increase of fungal species from young to old-age stands supports …

Ecological and taxonomic studies of ectomycorrhizal fungi associated with Aspen
… and Tricholoma sclapturatum. Ectomycorrhizal rootlets were sampled to determine if above ground species reflected the abundance and distribution of species below ground. Over 94% of the mycorrhizae were identified to species by morphology and RFLP analysis, and 91% (excluding Cenococcum-type) …

The Influence of Root Geometry on Soil Cohesion and Anchoring Ability through Geologic Time
… on account of its densely-packed dichotomous rootlets. Calamites is unique in its clonal reproductive habit and nodal branching architecture, which could have helped it colonize particularly unstable environments. We maintain that the earliest trees played a key role in surface stabilization …

Bodenreaktionskräfte bei Kindern mit Cerebralparese vor und nach selektiver dorsaler Rhizotomie
… sectioning of afferent sensory spinal nerve rootlets. In order to detect gait pathologies and validate therapeutic outcomes, instrumented gait analysis has been proven to be a renowned tool. However, the influence of SDR on ground reaction forces (GRF), examining force curves over time during …

Anatomical investigation of the accessory nerve
… the spinal root of the CN XI arises mainly from rootlets of C1 to C5 spinal nerves. The most common variation found was the posterior root of C1 spinal nerve joining the CN XI and ending at the point of anastomosis (Type IV). This type of anastomosis was seen in four cadavers (40%) on both sides …

Stratigraphy, sedimentology, and depositional environments of the Hell Creek Formation (Late Cretaceous) and adjacent strata, Glendive area, Montana
… terrestrial plant fossils including leaves and rootlets are common in the Hell Creek.</p> <p>Sandstones are interpreted to be point bar deposits of meandering distributary channels. Sandy siltstones are natural levee deposits. Shales are interdistributary floodbasin, lake, and abandoned channel …

Functioning, disability, health and quality of life in adults with cerebral palsy more than 25 years after selective dorsal rhizotomy: a long-term follow-up study during adulthood
… which entails selective sectioning of dorsal rootlets in the lumbosacral area, diminishing spasticity through reducing muscle tone. SDR gained increasing acceptance following the work of Peacock and Arens in the 1980s, and although a large number of studies have demonstrated the benefits of …
