...…impedance, temperature, moisture distribution, solute concentrations and redox reactions (Herrera et al. 2012), and thus, the results obtained may not be applicable to field conditions (Bengough et al. 2004; Gregory et al. 2009a,b; Wojciechowski et al. 2009; Wells et al. 2012; Watt et al. 2013)....

...Our limited understanding of how roots can overcome and adapt to abiotic conditions is potentially one of the major limitations in translating results from laboratory and glasshouse studies of root behaviour to field conditions (Bengough et al. 2004; Gregory et al. 2009a; Valentine et al. 2012b)....
