Root phosphatase activity aligns with the collaboration gradient of the root economics space

New Phytologist, 2021
Summary The adoption of diverse resource acquisition strategies is critical for plant growth and species coexistence. Root phosphatase is of particular importance in the acquisition of soil phosphorus (P), yet it is often overlooked in studies of root trait syndromes.

Expanding the Root Economics Space With Root Nitrogen Reallocation

Plant, Cell & Environment
ABSTRACTHarnessing root nitrogen reallocation (RNR) to enhance plant productivity commences with positioning RNR in the root economics space, about which we still know little. We conducted an inclusive synthesis linking RNR to root traits, combined with a 2‐year 15N‐labelling field experiment, to position RNR in the root economics space under ...

The overlooked role of root water content in the root economics space

Nature Plants
Root traits are fundamental to plant survival, growth and adaptation to environmental changes. Despite increasing attention to the root economics space, a quantitative understanding of global patterns and key drivers of root trait variation remains elusive.

Measurement of root porosity (volume of root air space

Environmental and Experimental Botany, 1988
Abstract Root research can benefit under many circumstances from determination of the % fraction of root volume occupied by air (root porosity). Root porosity provides an indication of root reaction or adaptability to environments with insufficient oxygen availability.

Retrograde instrumentation and obturation of the root canal space

Journal of Endodontics, 1983
A treatment approach is described combining retrograde biomechanical instrumentation with retrograde obturation of the root canal space prior to insertion of a retrograde filling material in the apical terminus of the canal.

Planting Roots, Claiming Space

NACLA Report on the Americas, 2018
In the early twentieth century, the United States began to settle the arid regions of the West. At the same time, agricultural experts around the world started to develop a new agroecological zone:...
