Different Responses in Root Water Uptake of Summer Maize to Planting Density and Nitrogen Fertilization [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Modifying farming practices combined with breeding has the potential to improve water and nutrient use efficiency by regulating root growth, but achieving this goal requires phenotyping the roots, including their architecture and ability to take up water

Construction of root tip density function and root water uptake characteristics in alpine meadows [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Accurate calculation of root water uptake (RWU) is the key to improving vegetation water use efficiency and identifying water cycle evolution patterns, and root tips play an important role in RWU.

Irrigation Depth Modulates Root Water Uptake in Subtropical Citrus Orchards: Insights from Stable Isotopes and MixSIAR Modelling [PDF]

Plants
Irrigation depth plays a critical role in regulating soil water availability and root water uptake in perennial orchards, yet its mechanistic effects remain poorly understood in subtropical red-soil hilly regions characterized by strong evaporative ...

How to put plant root uptake into a soil water flow model [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

F1000Research, 2022
The need for improved crop water use efficiency calls for flexible modeling platforms to implement new ideas in plant root uptake and its regulation mechanisms. This paper documents the details of modifying a soil infiltration and redistribution model to

Spatio-Temporal Variation in Water Uptake in Seminal and Nodal Root Systems of Barley Plants Grown in Soil

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The spatial and temporal dynamics of root water uptake in nodal and seminal roots are poorly understood, especially in relation to root system development and aging.

Root water uptake patterns are controlled by tree species interactions and soil water variability [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences
Root water uptake depends on soil moisture which is primarily fed by throughfall in forests. Several biotic and abiotic elements shape the spatial distribution of throughfall.

A root is a root is a root? Water uptake rates of Citrus root orders [PDF]

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2010
ABSTRACT Knowledge about the physiological function of root orders is scant. In this study, a system to monitor the water flux among root orders was developed using miniaturized chambers. Different root orders of 4‐year‐old Citrus volkameriana trees were analysed with ...

Root phenotyping and root water uptake calculation using soil water contents measured in a winter wheat field

Agricultural Water Management, 2023
Non-destructive phenotyping of roots and measurement of root water uptake from different soil layers in the field are vital for improving water management and facilitating the development of drought-resistant crop varieties, but difficult because of ...

Label-free quantitative proteomics of maize roots from different root zones provides insight into proteins associated with enhance water uptake

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Maize is one of the most important food crops worldwide. Roots play important role in maize productivity through water and nutrient uptake from the soil.

Modeling the Impact of Biopores on Root Growth and Root Water Uptake [PDF]

Vadose Zone Journal, 2019
Core Ideas A 3D soil–root model was used to investigate root–biopore interactions. Known effects of biopores on root growth, i.e., increased root length and depth
