From hydraulic root architecture models to macroscopic representations of root hydraulics in soil water flow and land surface models [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021 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.

Microbe-induced drought tolerance by ABA-mediated root architecture and epigenetic reprogramming. [PDF]
EMBO Rep, 2023 The use of beneficial microbes to mitigate drought stress tolerance of plants is of great potential albeit little understood. We show here that a root endophytic desert bacterium, Pseudomonas argentinensis strain SA190, enhances drought stress tolerance ...

Root architecture and rhizosphere-microbe interactions. [PDF]
J Exp BotPlant roots fulfil crucial tasks during a plant’s life. As roots encounter very diverse conditions while exploring the soil for resources, their growth and development must be responsive to changes in the rhizosphere, resulting in root architectures that

A Major Root Architecture QTL Responding to Water Limitation in Durum Wheat
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 The optimal root system architecture (RSA) of a crop is context dependent and critical for efficient resource capture in the soil. Narrow root growth angle promoting deeper root growth is often associated with improved access to water and nutrients in ...

Root exudate-derived compounds stimulate the phosphorus solubilizing ability of bacteria
Scientific Reports, 2023 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.

Nutrient deficiency effects on root architecture and root-to-shoot ratio in arable crops
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Plant root traits play a crucial role in resource acquisition and crop performance when soil nutrient availability is low. However, the respective trait responses are complex, particularly at the field scale, and poorly understood due to difficulties in ...
