Morphological Disparity
Morphological disparity, the measure of morphological variation among species and higher taxa, has been at the core of an important research program... -
Morphological and Pull-Out Mechanical Properties of Alfalfa Roots in the Seedling Stage
PurposeThe mechanical properties of plant roots in the early growth stage are not clear, which limits the application of plants in soil reinforcement...
