BAFF-R expression is first detected in T1 B cells and increases steadily there after.

Signaling through the BAFF/BAFF-R axis promotes survival of transitional B cells by inducing the synthesis of anti-apoptotic factors such as Bcl-2, Bcl-xl, and Mcl-1

#XL - R Botany

In monocotyledonous plants, the primary root is short lived and is replaced by a large number of roots called “Fibrous root system”

II.Fibrous root System

It develop from other than radicles

Many Small branching Roots, called fibrous root, but no large Primary root

The huge number of thread like roots increases the surface area for absorption of water and minerals

Fibrous root anchor the plant less securely

Fibrous root system

Fibrous root system found in Monocot Plants.

e.g., Maize, Paddy, Wheat, Grass, Onion

Families- Liliaceae, Poaceae etc.
