Coupling Root Diameter With Rooting Depth to Reveal the Heterogeneous Assembly of Root-Associated Bacterial Communities in Soybean [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Root diameter and rooting depth lead to morphological and architectural heterogeneity of plant roots; however, little is known about their effects on root-associated microbial communities. Bacterial community assembly was explored across 156 samples from

Hydrologic regulation of plant rooting depth [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance Knowledge of plant rooting depth is critical to understanding plant-mediated global change. Earth system models are highly sensitive to this particular parameter with large consequences for modeled plant productivity, water–energy–carbon exchange between the land and the atmosphere, and silicate weathering regulating ...

Global transcriptome and coexpression network analyses reveal cultivar-specific molecular signatures associated with different rooting depth responses to drought stress in potato [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Potato is one of the most important vegetable crops worldwide. Its growth, development and ultimately yield is hindered by drought stress condition. Breeding and selection of deep-rooted and drought-tolerant potato varieties has become a prime approach ...

Rooting depth and root depth distribution ofTrifolium repens×T. unifloruminterspecific hybrids [PDF]

Annals of Botany, 2016
Background and aims Traits related to root depth distribution were examined in Trifolium repens × T. uniflorum backcross 1 (BC1) hybrids to determine whether root characteristics of white clover could be improved by interspecific hybridization. Methods Two white clover cultivars, two T.

Infiltration depth, rooting depth, and regolith flushing-A global perspective. [PDF]

PNAS Nexus
Abstract In the vegetation root zone, infiltration (Inf) parts in two directions with distinct Earth-system functions. One goes up as evapotranspiration (E + Tr), returning Inf to the atmosphere (short-circuiting) and affecting short-term weather/climate and the carbon cycle.

Estimating Rooting Depth From Herbarium Specimens Might Be More Accurate Than Using Large Trait Databases [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Global databases of plant functional traits are facing issues in data heterogeneity and taxonomical or geographical representativeness. To fill data gaps, natural history collections, such as herbaria, have become widely accepted as a potential source of

Implementing Dynamic Rooting Depth for Improved Simulation of Soil Moisture and Land Surface Feedbacks in Noah‐MP‐Crop

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
The study postulates that crop rooting depth representation plays a vital role in simulating soil‐crop‐atmospheric interactions. Rooting depth determines the water access for plants and alters the surface energy participation and soil moisture profile ...

Hydrologic regulation of plant rooting depth: Breakthrough or observational conundrum? [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2018
In PNAS, Fan et al. (1) propose that landscape-scale hydrologic convergence along topography is the main driver of rooting depth. Fan et al. (1) base their assessment on a compilation of published reports and the development of an inverse modeling applied at the global scale. One of the central hypotheses of Fan et al.

Rooting depth projections of global plant functional types and driving factors analysis based on a hybrid modeling framework

Ecological Indicators
Rooting depth serves as a critical parameter in earth system and hydrological models. However, the lack of rooting depth gridded dataset has hindered investigations into the interactions between rooting depth and terrestrial hydrological and ...
