Circadian Variation of Root Water Status in Three Herbaceous Species Assessed by Portable NMR
Plants, 2021 Roots are at the core of plant water dynamics. Nonetheless, root morphology and functioning are not easily assessable without destructive approaches. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), and particularly low-field NMR (LF-NMR), is an interesting noninvasive

The Invisible Frontline: High-Tech Root Imaging for Crop Stress Adaptation. [PDF]
Physiol PlantABSTRACT Roots are crucial for enhancing crop resilience to abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, cold, nutrient deficiency, and metal toxicity. Root system architecture and morphological traits play a significant role in enabling plants to access water and nutrients under stress conditions.

Urochloa brizantha Interference in the Phaseolus vulgaris Radicular System Fertilized with Phosphorus [PDF]
Planta Daninha, 2019 : Interference between root systems occurs below the ground surface long before the competition between plants is expressed in the shoot. Nutrients stand out for being limited in the soil, requiring supplementation, especially phosphorus.

Artificial soil (ArtSoil): Recreating soil conditions in synthetic plant growth media. [PDF]
Plant JSUMMARY Controlled plant growth in laboratories can be achieved by cultivating plants under sterile or axenic conditions on predefined synthetic growth media, typically supplemented with sugar. In nature, plants do not receive exogenous sugar supplies, form symbiosis with microbes, and plant growth is influenced by soil edaphic factors.

Optimizing root measurements in rhizotrons [PDF]
, 2019 Abstract Background and Aims The line intersect method is widely used in rhizotron and minirhizotron studies to quantify roots and study cultivar and treatment differences in root growth. We investigated ways to optimize the line intersect method and root depth measurements with respect to data ...

Deciphering Root Architectural Traits Involved to Cope With Water Deficit in Oat
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Drought tolerance is a complex phenomenon comprising many physiological, biochemical and morphological changes at both aerial and below ground levels. We aim to reveal changes on root morphology that promote drought tolerance in oat in both seedling and ...
