A comparison between water uptake and root length density in winter wheat: effects of root density and rhizosphere properties. [PDF]

Plant Soil, 2020
Abstract Background and aims We aim to quantify the variation in root distribution in a set of 35 experimental wheat lines. We also compared the effect of variation in hydraulic properties of the rhizosphere on water uptake by roots. Methods We measured the root length density and soil drying in 35 wheat lines in a field experiment.

Relating Profile Wall Root-Length Density Estimates to Monolith Root-Length Density Measurements of Cover Crops [PDF]

Agronomy, 2021
Different methods have been proposed for in situ root-length density (RLD) measurement. One widely employed is the time-consuming sampling of soil cores or monoliths (MO).

Association between root growth angle and root length density of a near-isogenic line of IR64 rice with DEEPER ROOTING 1 under different levels of soil compaction

Plant Production Science, 2017
DEEPER ROOTING 1 (DRO1) of rice controls the gravitropic response of root growth angle. In order to clarify the effects of DRO1 on root growth angle and root length density under different soil resistance to penetration, and to quantify the relationship ...

Root Characteristics for Maize with the Highest Grain Yield Potential of 22.5 Mg ha⁻¹ in China

Agriculture, 2023
In maize (Zea mays L.), rational root structure promotes high grain yield under dense sowing conditions. This study was conducted at Qitai Farm in Xinjiang, China, in 2019 and 2021. A traditional wide and narrow row planting method was adopted, with wide

In situ Root Phenotypes of Cotton Seedlings Under Phosphorus Stress Revealed Through RhizoPot

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Phosphorus (P) deficiency is a common challenge in crop production because of its poor mobility through the soil. The root system plays a significant role in P absorption from the soil and is the initial indicator of low P levels. However, the phenotypic
