Root system architecture (RSA) encompasses the three‐dimensional configuration of a plant’s root network, which plays a critical role in water and nutrient uptake, anchorage and overall plant fitness.
Aims This paper presents a displacement-based model for predicting the relationship between the increase in shear resistance and shear displacement for soils permeated with an entire plant root system ...
In soil, nitrogen (N), an essential macronutrient for plant growth, exhibits significant spatial heterogeneity. This necessitates plants to grapple with a complex array of environmental conditions in ...
