Root and rhizosphere contribution to the net soil COS exchange
Background and aimsPartitioning the measured net ecosystem carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) exchange into gross primary productivity (GPP) and ecosystem...
-
An increase of fine-root biomass in nutrient-poor soils increases soil organic matter but not soil cation exchange capacity
PurposeFine roots are an important source of soil organic matter (SOM); however, it is unclear whether the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of...
-
Root exudation links root traits to soil functioning in agroecosystems
Background and aimsRoot exudation is a key process for plant nutrient acquisition, but the controls on root exudation and its relationship to soil C...
-
Divergent intra- and interspecific root order variability identifies a two-dimensional root economics spectrum
Background and AimsThe form-function linkages and variation of fine root traits reflect adaptive strategies to cope with complex soil environments....

The Effect of Polymetallic Pollution on Ion-Exchange Properties of Barley Root and Shoot Cell Walls
AbstractFor the first time we determined the ion-exchange properties of the cell walls (CWs) isolated from roots and shoots of barley plants grown in...

Study on Monitoring Methods for Net CO2 Exchange Rate of Individual Standing Tree
AbstractThe net CO 2 exchange rate, a pivotal plant physiology metric representing the carbon sequestration and release capacity of individual trees,...
-
Regulation of Root Tissue Size and Adaptations to Hypoxia
Soil flooding restricts gas exchange between the air and the soil. Thus, the oxygen level gradually decreases in the soil through the respiration of...

Root Exudates and Their Significance in Abiotic Stress Amelioration in Plants: A Review
Abiotic stresses such as salinity, drought, extreme temperature, radiation, nutrient deficiency, and heavy metals can significantly impact plant...
-
Exploring crop root-soil heat relationships to optimally predict soil temperatures in greenhouse spaces
AimConsidering the direct or indirect influence of crops on greenhouse soil, we improved the traditional greenhouse prediction of soil temperature,...

Calcium in the Life Cycle of Legume Root Nodules
The present review highlights both the fundamental questions of calcium localization, compartmentation, and its participation in symbiosome signaling...
-
Potato and soil 15N recoveries from different labelled forage root and shoot
An improved understanding of the contribution of a preceding forage crop to a subsequent potato crop can improve nitrogen (N) utilization in potato...
-
Interplay between developmental cues and rhizosphere signals from mycorrhizal fungi shape root anatomy, impacting crop productivity
BackgroundThe rhizosphere is the interface between roots and the soil and the site of nutrient and water uptake for plant growth. Root anatomy and...
