Relationships between Nutrient Heterogeneity, Root Growth, and Hormones: Evidence for Interspecific Variation

open access: yesPlants, 2018
(1) Background: Plant roots respond to nutrients through root architecture that is regulated by hormones. Strong inter-specific variation in root architecture has been well documented, but physiological mechanisms that may control the variation have not.

Root architecture characterization in relation to biomass allocation and biological nitrogen fixation in a collection of European soybean genotypes☆

open access: yesOilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2021
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] is the legume with the largest cultivated area worldwide and its yield depends largely on symbiotic nitrogen fixation and root architecture.

Local and systemic regulation of plant root system architecture and symbiotic nodulation by a receptor-like kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
In plants, root system architecture is determined by the activity of root apical meristems, which control the root growth rate, and by the formation of lateral roots. In legumes, an additional root lateral organ can develop: the symbiotic nitrogen-fixing

Root Architecture and Plant Productivity [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1995
Water and nutrient availability limit plant growth in a11 but a very few natural ecosystems. They limit yield in most agricultural ecosystems, and in the United States and other industrialized nations, intensive irrigation and fertilization have generated serious environmental problems.

Phenotyping Tomato Root Developmental Plasticity in Response to Salinity in Soil Rhizotrons

open access: yesPlant Phenomics, 2021
Plants have developed multiple strategies to respond to salt stress. In order to identify new traits related to salt tolerance, with potential breeding application, the research focus has recently been shifted to include root system architecture (RSA ...

Building a future with root architecture [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2018
Unmanaged consumption and climate change are profoundly affecting water resources at a global level. It is therefore vital to understand plant responses to drought and flooding, and to breed crops with greater water use efficiency and resilience. Root system architecture is critically important in this, but understanding how architecture and root ...

Iterative image segmentation of plant roots for high-throughput phenotyping

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Accurate segmentation of root system architecture (RSA) from 2D images is an important step in studying phenotypic traits of root systems. Various approaches to image segmentation exist but many of them are not well suited to the thin and reticulated ...

Rice root genetic architecture: Meta-analysis from a drought QTL database [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
During the last 10 years, a large number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling rice root morphological parameters have been detected in several mapping populations by teams interested in improving drought resistance in rice.

Statistical Characterization of the Root System Architecture Model CRootBox

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2018
The connection between the parametrization of three-dimensional (3D) root architecture models and characteristic measures of the simulated root systems is often not obvious.

An auxin transport-based model of root branching in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Root architecture is a crucial part of plant adaptation to soil heterogeneity and is mainly controlled by root branching. The process of root system development can be divided into two successive steps: lateral root initiation and lateral root ...
