Alhagi sparsifolia Harbors a Different Root-Associated Mycobiome during Different Development Stages
The mycobiome in the rhizosphere and within the roots benefits the nutrition and function of host plants. However, compared with the bacterial community, root-associated mycobiomes of desert plants and the forces that drive their assemblage are limited ...

A root is a root is a root? Water uptake rates of Citrus root orders [PDF]
ABSTRACTKnowledge 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 respect to root morphology and water flux.
