Challenges of modifying root traits in crops for agriculture

Trends in Plant Science, 2014
Roots play an essential role in the acquisition of water and minerals from soils. Measuring crop root architecture and assaying for changes in function can be challenging, but examples have emerged showing that modifications to roots result in higher yield and increased stress tolerance. In this review, we focus mainly on the molecular genetic advances

Genetic analysis of root morphological traits in wheat

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2014
Traits related to root architecture are of great importance for yield performance of crop species, although they remain poorly understood. The present study is aimed at identifying the genomic regions involved in the control of root morphological traits in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.).

The origin of bi-dimensionality in plant root traits

Trends in Ecology & Evolution
Plant roots show extraordinary diversity in form and function in heterogeneous environments. Mounting evidence has shown global bi-dimensionality in root traits, the root economics spectrum (RES), and an orthogonal dimension describing mycorrhizal collaboration; however, the origin of the bi-dimensionality remains unresolved.

Correlation of Rooting and Other Traits in Mulberry

Indian Journal of Forestry, 1995
Simple correlation co-efficients amongst six metric traits of nine different mulberry genotype groups were worked out. The extent of correlation varied from one-group to the other. Most of the correlations were straight forward, such as number of shoot/plant showing relationship with length of shoots, number of leaves/plant and leaf yield/plant ...

Evaluation of Brassica root architectural traits

2023
Given the roles of roots in water and nutrient uptake, anchorage, and storage of resources, root system architecture (RSA) can have a major impact on plant growth and development. The root systems of Brassica species, an important group that includes many field and horticultural crops, is complex.

Investigation of Root Structures and Comparison Rooting Traits of Capsicum Species

2020
Biber anaç ıslahında güçlü kök sisteminin oluşturulmasına yönelik çeşit ıslah çalışmaları oldukça düşük düzeydedir. Bu çalışmada, aşılı biber anaç ıslahında türler arası melez programında yer alan Capsicum annuum, Capsicum chinense ve Capsicum baccatum türlerine ait biber genotiplerinin kök yapılarının incelenmesi ve köklenme özelliklerinin ...
