Impact of pyrogenic carbon on tomato root architecture and metabolites (ABA and proline) under drought stress [PDF]
IntroductionDrought stress severely threatens global agriculture by reducing crop productivity and compromising food security. Biochar derived from agricultural waste has emerged as a promising soil amendment to enhance plant resilience and mitigate ...

Getting to the roots of it: Genetic and hormonal control of root architecture
Root system architecture (RSA)--the spatial configuration of a root system--is an important developmental and agronomic trait, with implications for overall plant architecture, growth rate and yield, abiotic stress resistance, nutrient uptake, and ...

Root exudate-derived compounds stimulate the phosphorus solubilizing ability of bacteria
Low phosphorus (P) availability in soils is a major challenge for sustainable food production, as most soil P is often unavailable for plant uptake and effective strategies to access this P are limited.

From hydraulic root architecture models to macroscopic representations of root hydraulics in soil water flow and land surface models [PDF]
Root water uptake is an important process in the terrestrial water cycle. How this process depends on soil water content, root distributions, and root properties is a soil–root hydraulic problem.

Modeling and Analysis of Root Branching Plasticity Based on Parrondo's Game
For different kinds of plants, the distribution of lateral roots is highly plastic in different growth environments. In particular, the branching distance of the roots plays a decisive role in the formation of the root system architecture.
