Mixed nitrate and ammonium supply improves maize growth and leaf water status by regulating concentration ratios of phytohormones in the xylem sap Open
The use of mixed nitrate and ammonium supply (mixed-N) as a nitrogen source can improve plant growth. Phytohormones in the xylem sap are involved in root-shoot signaling and regulation of plant growth and development. However, the role of …

Crop domestication disrupts intercropping benefits: A case study from barley–faba bean mixture under contrasting P inputs Open
How crop domestication mediates root functional traits and trait plasticity in response to neighboring plants is unclear, but it is important for selecting potential species to be grown together to facilitate P uptake. We grew two barley a…

Genetic Dissection of Root Angle of Brassica napus in Response to Low Phosphorus Open
Plant root angle determines the vertical and horizontal distribution of roots in the soil layer, which further influences the acquisition of phosphorus (P) in topsoil. Large genetic variability for the lateral root angle (root angle) was o…

Rhizosphere bacteria containing ACC deaminase decrease root ethylene emission and improve maize root growth with localized nutrient supply Open
Localized nutrient supply can enhance maize root proliferation, but also increase root ethylene production. Whether engineering ethylene signalling in the rhizosphere can further enhance root growth and nutrient uptake remains unknown. Her…

Leaf Phosphorus Concentration Regulates the Development of Cluster Roots and Exudation of Carboxylates in Macadamia integrifolia Open
Phosphorus (P) deficiency induces cluster-root formation and carboxylate exudation in most Proteaceae. However, how external P supply regulates these root traits in Macadamia integrifolia remains unclear. Macadamia plants were grown hydrop…

High-throughput visible image transmission design based on the X-CT root 3D reconstruction system Open
X-ray computed tomography (X-CT) technology can help us observe plants’ root structure in a three-dimensional, non-destructive manner under underground soil conditions. Between the CT imaging terminal and the post-image 3D reconstruction p…

Genetic variants associated with the root system architecture of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) under contrasting phosphate supply Open
Breeding crops with ideal root system architecture for efficient absorption of phosphorus is an important strategy to reduce the use of phosphate fertilizers. To investigate genetic variants leading to changes in root system architecture, …

A novel<i>Brassica</i>–rhizotron system to unravel the dynamic changes in root system architecture of oilseed rape under phosphorus deficiency Open
The Brassica-rhizotron system is an effective method for soil-based root phenotyping across an entire growth cycle. Given that root senescence is likely to occur earlier under low P conditions, crop P deficiency is likely to affect late wa…

Deep roots and soil structure Open
In this opinion article we examine the relationship between penetrometer resistance and soil depth in the field. Assuming that root growth is inhibited at penetrometer resistances > 2.5 MPa, we conclude that in most circumstances the incre…
