Characterization of Cover Crop Rooting Types from Integration of Rhizobox Imaging and Root Atlas Information [PDF]

Plants, 2019
Plant root systems are essential for sustainable agriculture, conveying resource-efficient genotypes and species with benefits to soil ecosystem functions. Targeted selection of species/genotypes depends on available root system information.

Influence of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) on rhizosphere soil solution chemistry in long-term contaminated soils: A rhizobox study

Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2010
This study investigated the influence of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) root exudation on soil solution properties (pH, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), metal solubility) in the rhizosphere using a rhizobox. Measurement was conducted following the cultivation of Indian mustard in the rhizobox filled four different types of heavy metal contaminated ...

Screening of Soybean Genotypes Based on Root Morphology and Shoot Traits Using the Semi-Hydroponic Phenotyping Platform and Rhizobox Technique

Agronomy, 2021
Root-system architecture is vital for improving soybean (Glycine max L.) growth and nutrient uptake. We characterised root-system architecture and shoot traits of 30 soybean genotypes in a semi-hydroponic system 35 days after sowing (DAS) and validated ...

Easy-to-build rhizobox method to support wheat root research and breeding for future production systems

, 2023
Abstract Aims Rhizoboxes allow non-invasive phenotyping of root systems and are often used as an alternative to evaluation in the field which typically requires excavation, a laborious endeavour. Semi-automated rhizobox methods can be used to screen large numbers of plants, but these platforms can be expensive due to the cost of customised ...

Earthworm and Plant Root Bioturbation Succession in Compacted Soil Revealed by 2D Rhizobox and X-ray CT Imaging [PDF]

Soil structure plays a vital role in ecosystem functioning. Earthworms and plant roots are key bioturbation agents crucial to building and maintaining soil structure suitable for agriculture. However, following soil compaction, the succession of biophysical activity between these agents remains unclear and understanding this dynamic is critical for ...

A Rhizobox-Study Elucidating Biogas-Digestate Fertilization and Soil Compaction Effects on Juvenile Maize Growth and Rhizosphere pH

Biogas digestate (BD) contains nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) and is easily and largely available in Germany and other countries in Europe. Nevertheless, few studies compare BD to mineral NPK fertilizer, particularly under soil compaction.

Genetic dissection of the root system architecture QTLome and its relationship with early shoot development, breeding and adaptation in durum wheat. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Root system architecture (RSA), shoot architecture, and shoot‐to‐root biomass allocation are critical for optimizing crop water and nutrient capture and ultimately grain yield. Nevertheless, only a few studies adequately dissected the genetic basis of RSA and its relationship to shoot development.

The PIN2 ortholog in barley modifies root gravitropism and architecture. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Roots provide the critical interface where plants acquire nutrients and water, but our limited understanding of the genetic controls modulating root system architecture (RSA) in crop species constrains opportunities to develop future cultivars with improved root systems.

Impact of Fusarium Crown Rot on Root System Area and Links to Genetic Variation within Commercial Wheat Varieties

Agronomy, 2023
Fusarium crown rot (FCR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium pseudograminearum (Fp), is a major constraint to cereal production worldwide. The pathogen restricts the movement of solutes within the plant due to mycelial colonisation of vascular tissue.
