Microgravity triggers gene expression cascades influencing plant root growth

Logical pathway linking microgravity exposure to altered gene expression, particularly in gravitropism-related and auxin signaling genes, which in turn modulates plant root growth patterns. Integrates main observed molecular and developmental effects described in the study.
