Diurnal asymmetric warming promotes the growth of the perennial species Sophora alopecuroides in a temperate arid region of China [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionGlobal warming exhibits asymmetric patterns (differential day–night warming rates), yet its effects on early plant regeneration and physiological adaptation remain unclear.

The effects of growth promoting rhizobacteria and nitrogen fertilizer on growth indices of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) under water shortage stress conditions [PDF]

پژوهش‌های حبوبات ایران, 2021
IntroductionCommon bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the world’s most important food legume crop. This staple considered as a nearly perfect food mainly because of its high protein content (about 25 percent) and abundant fiber, complex carbohydrates (about

Root Morphology, Allometric Relations and Rhizosheath of Ancient and Modern Tetraploid Wheats (Triticum durum Desf.) in Response to Inoculation with Trichoderma harzianum T-22

Plants, 2022
Early root traits and allometrics of wheat are important for competition and use of resources. They are under-utilized in research and un-explored in many ancient wheats.

Inherent and Stress-Induced Responses of Fine Root Morphology and Anatomy in Commercial Grapevine Rootstocks with Contrasting Drought Resistance

Plants, 2021
Some grapevine rootstocks perform better than others during and after drought events, yet it is not clear how inherent and stress-induced differences in root morphology and anatomy along the length of fine roots are involved in these responses.

Trade-Offs in Phosphorus Acquisition Strategies of Five Common Tree Species in a Tropical Forest of Puerto Rico

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
Tree species that are successful in tropical lowlands have different acquisition strategies to overcome soil phosphorus (P) limitations. Some of these strategies belowground include adjustments in fine-root traits, such as morphology, architecture ...

Biomass and morphology of fine roots of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) after three years of nitrogen fertilization

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Increasing nitrogen (N) deposition may affect carbon and nutrient dynamics in forest ecosystems. To better understand the effects of N deposition, we need to improve our knowledge of N effects on fine roots (roots < 2 mm in diameter), as they are a ...

Plant Nutrient Contents Rather Than Physical Traits Are Coordinated Between Leaves and Roots in a Desert Shrubland

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Although leaf economics spectrum (LES) has been extensively tested with regional and global datasets, the correlation among functional traits of desert plants remains largely unclear.

Study Root System Structure and Characterstics in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Cultivars Influenced by Applications of Sources of Fertilizer under Dryland Farming [PDF]

بوم شناسی کشاورزی
IntroductionAmong the nutrients used by the plant for the growth of nitrogen due to its participation in the structure of proteins, amino acids, coenzymes and nucleic acids are the main factors involved in plant growth and fertility. In recent decades, a

Pitfalls in Root Trait Calculations: How Ignoring Diameter Heterogeneity Can Lead to Overestimation of Functional Traits

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Specific root length (SRL) and root tissue density (RTD) are ecologically functional traits which are calculated from root length or volume and root dry weight. Both can be converted into each other using the root diameter assuming roots are cylindrical.
