Deciphering Root Architectural Traits Involved to Cope With Water Deficit in Oat
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 ...

Root foraging and avoidance in hyperaccumulator and excluder plants: a rhizotron experiment [PDF]
AbstractAimsMetal hyperaccumulation is a rare phenomenon described for an increasing number of plant taxa. In this study we investigated the root growth responses of the well-known nickel, zinc, cadmium hyperaccumulatorNoccaea caerulescensand of the metal tolerant (non-accumulator)Stellaria media, in order to observe root foraging vs avoidance ...

A novel Brassica–rhizotron system to unravel the dynamic changes in root system architecture of oilseed rape under phosphorus deficiency [PDF]
Background and Aims: An important adaptation of plants to phosphorus (P) deficiency is to alter root system architecture (RSA) to increase P acquisition from the soil, but soil-based observations of RSA are technically challenging, especially in mature ...

Root architecture development in stony soils
Soils with high stone content represent a challenge to root development, as each stone is an obstacle to root growth. A high stone content also affects soil properties such as temperature or water content, which in turn affects root growth.

Monitoring roots of grazed rangeland vegetation with the root periscope/mini-rhizotron technique.
The root periscope/mini-rhizotron technique has been used most commonly to monitor root growth of field crops in a nondestructive manner. This study introduces a successful application of the technique for monitoring root growth of grazed rangeland ...

Bacillus seed coating mitigates early growth reduction in successive winter wheat without altering rhizosphere bacterial and archaeal communities. [PDF]
The soil legacy of successively grown winter wheat (WW) often leads to lower plant growth and yield. In this study, we assessed the effect of Bacillus pumilus seed inoculation on the early growth of successively grown WW.

A GIS-based method for the analysis of digital rhizotron images
Quantification of belowground plant response via rhizotron root image analysis is difficult and time-consuming, yet a plant's root response is of great interest to many researchers. Here, we present an automated, time efficient method for examining digital rhizotron images. A total of 285 digital images (218 mm by 300 mm) were collected using a flatbed
