Root growth and yield responses to nitrogen levels in bell pepper (Capsicum annuum) cultivation: balancing nutrient efficiency and productivity

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionThe root system plays a key role in plant nutrient and water uptake, influencing growth, yield, and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). However, excessive N fertilizer is often applied to boost productivity but can instead reduce efficiency and ...

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

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 ...

Note on the smallest root of the independence polynomial

, 2013
One can define the independence polynomial of a graph G as follows. Let i(k)(G) denote the number of independent sets of size k of G, where i(0)(G) = 1. Then the independence polynomial of G is I(G,x) = Sigma(n)(k=0)(-1)(k)i(k)(G)x(k).

Root Growth of Hordeum vulgare and Vicia faba in the Biopore Sheath

Agriculture, 2020
Biopores provide nutrients from root debris and earthworm casts. Inside large biopores, root function is limited due to the lack of root–soil contact. However, the immediate surroundings of biopores may hold a key function as “hotspots” for root growth ...

Back to the roots: standardizing root length density terminology

Plant and Soil
Abstract The number of studies investigating root length has increased, particularly in the context of root length measurements observed through windows such as minirhizotrons and rhizoboxes. However, there are currently two obstacles constraining their broader utility: (1) the absence of standardized terminology or units for root length data,

Shear strength and root length density analyses of Entisols treated with palm oil mill effluent sludge [PDF]

, 2017
The underutilized and improper management of wastewater such as palm oil mill effluent sludge (POME) sludge might create pollution and give a negative impact towards the environment. This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of shear strength parameter
