Many different experimental approaches have been applied to elaborate and study the
beneficial interactions between soil bacteria and plants. Some of these methods focus on …

Plant submergence is a major abiotic stress that impairs plant performance. Under water,
reduced gas diffusion exposes submerged plant cells to an environment that is enriched in …

Plant root reinforcement in soil bioengineering has gained increasing interest as a means of
sustainable and environmentally friendly soil reinforcement and stabilisation. While …

The soil region influenced by plant roots, ie, the rhizosphere, is one of the most complex
biological habitats on Earth and significantly impacts global carbon flow and transformation …

Root detritusphere is one of the most important sources of N 2 O, however, understanding of
how N 2 O emission from the detritusphere is influenced by soil properties remains elusive …

As with new technologies, plant nutrition has taken a big step forward in the last two
decades. The main objective of this review is to briefly summarise the main pathways in …

Iron (Fe) is a vital element that is equally important for plants, animals, and humans. High Fe
concentrations in wheat grains have reliance on plant roots, the hidden half of the plant with …

Rootstocks are fundamental for peach production, and their architectural root traits
determine their performance. Root-system architecture (RSA) analysis is one of the key …

Crop root traits are known to influence the soil properties that underpin agroecosystem
functions, including soil aggregates, microbial properties, and soil organic carbon (SOC) …

Roots are the hidden parts of plants, anchoring their above-ground counterparts in the soil.
They are responsible for water and nutrient uptake and for interacting with biotic and abiotic …
