Compensation in Root Water Uptake Models Combined with Three‐Dimensional Root Length Density Distribution

Vadose Zone Journal, 2014
Because root water uptake is a considerable component in the soil water balance, a lot of attention has been paid to defining and applying root water uptake models. These models can be grouped into empirical vs. mechanistic root uptake models. Intermodel comparisons are valuable in understanding the different concepts used.

Association of Root Hair Length and Density with Yield-Related Traits and Expression Patterns of TaRSL4 Underpinning Root Hair Length in Spring Wheat

Plants, 2022
Root hairs play an important role in absorbing water and nutrients in crop plants. Here we optimized high-throughput root hair length (RHL) and root hair density (RHD) phenotyping in wheat using a portable Dinolite™ microscope. A collection of 24 century

Wood Chip Incorporation in Almond Orchard Planting Berms Increased Gravimetric Water Content, Soil CO2 Efflux, and Fine Root Length Density

HortScience
Incorporation of chipped woody material into soil instead of burning or transporting wood chips (WCs) off-site is a practical solution to dispose of old orchard trees.

Planting Density Does Not Affect Root Shape Traits Associated with Market Class in Carrot [PDF]

HortScience, 2023
Carrot (Daucus carota var. sativus) cultivars with common root shape, appearance, and end-use are grouped and commercialized in market classes. The shape of the carrot storage root is the result of growth and development, which is highly influenced by ...

Different Responses in Root Water Uptake of Summer Maize to Planting Density and Nitrogen Fertilization [PDF]

, 2022
Modifying farming practices combined with breeding has the potential to improve water and nutrient use efficiency by regulating root growth, but achieving this goal requires phenotyping the roots, including their architecture and ability to take up water

Modelling diverse root density dynamics and deep nitrogen uptake — a simple approach [PDF]

, 2009
We present a 2-D model for simulation of root density and plant nitrogen (N) uptake for crops grown in agricultural systems, based on a modification of the root density equation originally proposed by Gerwitz and Page in J Appl Ecol 11:773–781, (1974). A

Interspecies Interactions in Relation to Root Distribution Across the Rooting Profile in Wheat-Maize Intercropping Under Different Plant Densities

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
In wheat-maize intercropping systems, the maize is often disadvantageous over the wheat during the co-growth period. It is unknown whether the impaired growth of maize can be recovered through the enhancement of the belowground interspecies interactions.
