Let $G$ an algebraic (reductive) group. $T$ a maximal torus, $B$ a Borel subgroup containing $T$, and $w_0$ the longest elemenet of the Weyl group.

I'm looking for a reference explaining why when you conjugate $B$ by $w_0$, the result is the opposite Borel subgroup $B^-$.

Is there a proof involving roots of $G$ relative to $T$ ?

I've found a proof in a book of M. Geck, but this proof doesn't involve roots at all, but only the fact that $B^-$ is uniquely defined by the relation $B \cap B^- = T$.
