How to study deep roots—and why it matters
TL;DR: This review successively address major physical, biogeochemical and ecological functions of deep roots to emphasize the significance of deep Roots and to illustrate the yet limited knowledge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding deep roots and their functions in ecosystems: an advocacy for more unconventional research
Alain Pierret,Jean-Luc Maeght,Corentin Clément,Jean Pierre Montoroi,Christian Hartmann,Santimaitree Gonkhamdee +5 more
TL;DR: Current knowledge gaps are identified and new lines of research for improving the understanding of the processes that drive deep root growth and functioning are proposed, leading to a reflection on an alternative paradigm that could be used in the future as a unifying framework to describe and analyse deep rooting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Root functional parameters along a land‐use gradient: evidence of a community‐level economics spectrum
Iván Prieto,Iván Prieto,Catherine Roumet,Rémi Cardinael,Christian Dupraz,Christophe Jourdan,John H. Kim,Jean-Luc Maeght,Zhun Mao,Alain Pierret,Noelia Portillo,Olivier Roupsard,Chantanousone Thammahacksa,Alexia Stokes +13 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates the existence of a general trade-off in root construction at a community level, which operates within all root types, suggesting that all plant tissues are controlled by the trade-offs between resource acquisition and conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
IJ_Rhizo: an open-source software to measure scanned images of root samples
TL;DR: Overall, IJ_Rhizo offers new opportunities for researchers who cannot afford the cost of commercial software packages to carry out automated measurement of scanned images of root samples, without sacrificing accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Processes driving soil solution chemistry in a flooded rice-cropped vertisol: analysis of long-time monitoring data
Pascal Boivin,F. Favre,Claude Hammecker,Jean-Luc Maeght,Jean Larvy Delarivière,Jean-Christophe Poussin,M.C.S Wopereis +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of flooding on soil solution chemistry in an irrigated non-rained vertisol under rice was monitored during 3 years in northern Senegal, and the observed cycle in soil solutions chemistry could not be explained by water and solute transfer because infiltration rates were very low, due to air entrapment in the soil profile.
