Fine-Root C:N:P Stoichiometry and Its Driving Factors Are Different between Arbuscular and Ectomycorrhizal Plants in China

Agronomy, 2023
Fine roots are essential for terrestrial biogeochemical cycles. Mycorrhizal fungi’s functions in regulating the uptake of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) in plants are increasingly being recognized.

Biomass and morphology of fine roots of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) after three years of nitrogen fertilization

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Increasing nitrogen (N) deposition may affect carbon and nutrient dynamics in forest ecosystems. To better understand the effects of N deposition, we need to improve our knowledge of N effects on fine roots (roots < 2 mm in diameter), as they are a ...

Allocation Strategies of Carbon, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus at Species and Community Levels With Recovery After Wildfire

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Plant stoichiometry and nutrient allocation can reflect a plant’s adaptation to environmental nutrient changes. However, the allocation strategies of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) between leaf and fine root in response to wildfire have ...

Root Biomass Estimation in Natural and Planted Mangrove [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Belowground root biomass plays an essential role in the mangrove ecosystem as potential carbon storage, nutrient gain, or sediment accumulation yet is still overlooked. Therefore, estimation of root biomass is necessary.

Does the age of fine root carbon indicate the age of fine roots in boreal forests? [PDF]

Biogeochemistry, 2010
To test the reliability of the radiocarbon method for determining root age, we analyzed fine roots (originating from the years 1985–1993) from ingrowth cores with known maximum root age (1–6 years old). For this purpose, three Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stands were selected from boreal forests in Finland.

Inherent and Stress-Induced Responses of Fine Root Morphology and Anatomy in Commercial Grapevine Rootstocks with Contrasting Drought Resistance

Plants, 2021
Some grapevine rootstocks perform better than others during and after drought events, yet it is not clear how inherent and stress-induced differences in root morphology and anatomy along the length of fine roots are involved in these responses.

Fine root development and mycorrhization in Norway spruce stands one year after fertilization with potassium sulphate and wood ash

Journal of Forest Science, 2016
We compared the effects of forest fertilization with wood ash and potassium (K) sulphate on growth and mycorrhizal colonization of fine roots and on other soil microorganisms in Norway spruce (Picea abies) stands with symptoms of foliage damage ...

Different Waterlogging Depths Affect Spatial Distribution of Fine Root Growth for Pinus thunbergii Seedlings

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The increase of waterlogged environments at forests and urban greenery is of recent concern with the progress of climate change. Under waterlogging, plant roots are exposed to hypoxic conditions, which strongly affect root growth and function.

Impacts of environmental factors on fine root lifespan [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The lifespan of fast-cycling roots is a critical parameter determining a large flux of plant carbon into soil through root turnover and is a biological feature regulating the capacity of a plant to capture soil water and nutrients via root-age-related physiological processes.

The Hierarchy of Protoxylem Groupings in Primary Root and Their Plasticity to Nitrogen Addition in Three Tree Species

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Protoxylem grouping (PG), a classification based on the number of protoxylem poles, is a crucial indicator related to other functional traits in fine roots, affecting growth and survival of individual root.
