Thisstudy aimed at producing thefirst soil rooting depth map of Italy at 1:250,000 scale basedon the legacy soil maps, soil data and benchmark profiles, combined with the auxiliary data.The map highlights that moderately deep (33%) and deep (25%) soils are predominant andmainly distributed...
The soil water balance is calculated for the effective rooting depth as: (47)θi=θi−1+Pi−ROi+Iwi−ETci−DPi+GWi1000zri where, in addition to the symbols used before, DPi represents deep percolation [mm], GWi is groundwater contribution [mm], and zr i is the rooting depth [...
WATER depthDense subsoils pose a challenge to dryland winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in the Palouse region of the semiarid northwestern United States. Subsoils, commonly fragipans and argillic horizons, may restrict root growth and limit crop access to critical stored soil water,...
Root distribution, rooting depth, root diameter, water use and shoot biomass were evaluated. Millet produced the most biomass of any single species in the field (around 4 t ha-1) and had significantly higher water use efficiency (8.4 g L-1) than all legumes (4–6 g L-1). Millet and...
Root penetration to depth did not appear to be much affected by root diseases or subsoil acidity. Rather, subsoil compaction seemed to be responsible for the poor root penetration at many sites, especially where subsoil textures were silt loam or fine sandy loam. There were no clear, simple...
Rooting depth, water availability, and vegetation cover along an aridity gradient in Patagonia Auxin and light control of adventitious rooting in Arabidopsis require ARGONAUTE1. Pot size matters: a meta-analysis of the effects of rooting volume on plant growth ...

Aimed to understand how soil water was depleted by deep roots, the effects of drip irrigation and stand age on the deep root distribution, rooting depth, and soil water profile dynamics were investigated in a jujube (Ziziphus jujube Mill. CV. Lizao) plantation.A soil coring method with a Lu...
This research was aimed at finding the rooting depth, root biomass and its vertical distribution regularity of alfalfa ( Medicago sativ a L.) in different growing years in Beijing Plain and providing evidence for the cultivation of alfalfa in this area.关键...
