Species phylogeny, ecology, and root traits as predictors of root exudate composition

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2023
Summary Root traits including root exudates are key factors affecting plant interactions with soil and thus play an important role in determining ecosystem processes. The drivers of their variation, however, remain poorly understood. We determined the relative importance of phylogeny and species ecology in determining root traits and analyzed the ...

Quantitative trait loci for seeding root traits and the relationships between root and agronomic traits in common wheat

Genome, 2020
A completely developed and vigorous root system can provide a stable platform for aboveground plant organs. To identify loci controlling root traits that could be used in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding, 199 recombinant inbred lines were used to measure and analyze eight root traits.

Root quantity traits: a leading dimension in root trait space

New Phytologist
Summary Plant resource uptake depends on the interplay between the quantity and quality of roots, yet their coordination at the community level remains poorly understood.

Inheritance of Root Traits in Alfalfa

Crop Science, 1996
Root growth patterns influence nutrient uptake, productivity, and persistence in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). Inheritance of traits affecting root growth patterns in alfalfa are not well understood. Objectives of this research were to determine the affects of plant spacing and geographic location on root traits in alfalfa, to determine the inheritance

Phenotyping for Root Traits

2015
Root system architecture determines crop capacity to acquire water and nutrients in the dynamic and variable soil environment. Increasing attention is paid to searching for optimal root traits to improve resource uptake efficiency and adaptation to heterogeneous soil conditions.
