Hidden Branches: Developments in Root System Architecture

open access: yesAnnual Review of Plant Biology, 2007
The root system is fundamentally important for plant growth and survival because of its role in water and nutrient uptake. Therefore, plants rely on modulation of root system architecture (RSA) to respond to a changing soil environment. Although RSA is a highly plastic trait and varies both between and among species, the basic root system morphology ...

Impact of root system architecture on rhizosphere and root microbiome

Rhizosphere, 2018
Abstract The root system influences plant fitness, health, and productivity via its phenotypic traits (phenes) such as root length, biomass, density, volume, and surface area. Although these traits differentially impact the release of 20 to 80% of total photosynthates as root exudates, their role in influencing microbial communities in the ...

Root System Architecture

open access: yes, 2014
An increasing body of evidence indicates that the engineering of root system architecture has the potential to support a second green revolution targeting crop performance under suboptimal water and nutrient supply.

Quantitative analysis of plant root system architecture. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The root system of a plant is responsible for supplying it with essential nutrients. The plant’s ability to explore the surrounding soil is largely determined by its root system architecture (RSA), which varies with both genetic and environmental conditions. X-ray micro computed tomography (µCT) is a powerful tool allowing the non-invasive study of the
