In situ Root Phenotypes of Cotton Seedlings Under Phosphorus Stress Revealed Through RhizoPot

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Phosphorus (P) deficiency is a common challenge in crop production because of its poor mobility through the soil. The root system plays a significant role in P absorption from the soil and is the initial indicator of low P levels. However, the phenotypic

EVALUATION OF PHYSIOLOGICAL SEED QUALITY AND FIELD PERFORMANCE FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF MAIZE HYBRIDS [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة الأنبار للعلوم الزراعية
Farmers use seeds with good vigor as they guarantee a higher rate of emergence compared to less robust varieties to avoid replanting and the resulting delay in maturity or lower productivity due to poor plant density, caused mainly by their genetic ...

Morphology of the coffee root system using polyethylene film

open access: yesRevista Ceres, 2023
In the initial phase of the coffee crop, the control of weeds and water availability for the establishment of the plants is a concern. The polyethylene cover can positively influence the chemical and biological characteristics of the soil and ...

Response of root and root hair phenotypes of cotton seedlings under high temperature revealed with RhizoPot

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Driven by the increase in its frequency and duration, high temperature weather is increasingly seriously affecting crop development. High temperature inhibits the leaf development, flowering, and pollination of cotton, but its effects on the roots and ...

Interspecific and intraspecific variation in specific root length drives aboveground biodiversity effects in young experimental forest stands [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Ecology, 2017
Aims: Although the net biodiversity effect (NE) can be statistically partitioned into complementarity and selection effects (CE and SE), there are different underlying mechanisms that can cause a certain partitioning. Our objective was to assess the role of resource partitioning and species interactions as two important mechanisms that can bring about ...

Interspecific coordination and intraspecific plasticity of fine root traits in North American temperate tree species

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Fine roots play an important role in nutrient and water absorption and hence overall tree performance. However, current understanding of the ecological role of belowground traits lags considerably behind those of aboveground traits.
