Root-length densities of various annual crops following crops with contrasting root systems

Soil and Tillage Research, 2014
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate how soil structure and root-length densities of annual crops can be influenced by preceding crops. Three different annual field crops (spring wheat, Triticum aestivum L., winter barley, Hordeum vulgare L.

Estimating Root Length Densities Around Transplanted Container-Grown Plants

Arboriculture & Urban Forestry, 1983
A simple method is described for measuring root length densities and is applied to the study of root distributions around transplanted container-grown plants. Roots were separated from core samples using a soil elutriation system and counted using Tennant's line intersect method.

Evaluation of a core sampling scheme to characterize root length density of maize

Plant and Soil, 2008
Information about root distribution is important for characterization and modeling of water and nutrient uptake, biomass, and yield. Due to the heterogeneous distribution of roots in row crops, the reliability and representativeness of estimates of RL and root morphology using core sampling depend on the number of samples and their location.

[Changes of root biomass, root surface area, and root length density in a Populus cathayana plantation].

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2012
By using soil core method, the biomass, surface area, and length density of roots < or =2 mm and 2-5 mm in diameter in a 50-year-old Populus cathayana plantation on the northern slope of Qinling Mountains were determined during growth season. Among the roots

A comparison of minirhizotron techniques for estimating root length density in soils of different bulk densities

Plant and Soil, 1993
Flexible- and rigid-walled minirhizotron techniques were compared for estimating root length density of 14- to 28-day-old Pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and spring whet (Triticum aestivum L.) plants in soil boxes under controlled environment conditions at three soil bulk densities (1.3, 1.5 and 1.7 g cm−3).

Root Length Density from Core-Break Observations: Sources of Error

1991
ABSTRACT Sources of error in estimating root length/volume of soil from counts of roots visible at broken faces of a soil core were analyzed. Angular distribution of root growth has a large effect on the relationship. Systematic gradients of root length density in a core should have little influence on calibrations.
