- Climate, soil and plant functional types as drivers of global fine‐root trait variation (2017, background): “As a result, SRL is also found to be lower in denser soils, likely owing to the combined effect of increased fineroot diameter, higher tissue density and lower elongation rates (Bengough et al. 2011).”
- Acquisition of phosphorus and other poorly mobile nutrients by roots. Where do plant nutrition models fail? (2011, background): “In addition, the group of Bengough in Scotland has been making major progress in understanding how roots grow and anchor into the soil, root tip, including root cap cells, and root hairs playing a key role in such processes (Bengough et al. 2006, 2011).”
- Impact of alternate wetting and drying on rice physiology, grain production, and grain quality (2017, background): “109 One of the impacts of soil drying is to make soils harder (Bengough et al., 2011).”
- Microbial hotspots and hot moments in soil: Concept & review (2015, background): “…surrounding soil (Tiunov and Scheu, 1999; Uteau et al., 2013), ii) richness in nutrients and labile C (Athmann et al., 2013; Kautz et al., 2013), and iii) easier possibility to move down- and upwards because of lower bulk density (Bengough et al., 2011) and higher porosity (Feeney et al., 2006).”
- GROWSCREEN-Rhizo is a novel phenotyping robot enabling simultaneous measurements of root and shoot growth for plants grown in soil-filled rhizotrons. (2012, background): “It has been reported for several species that root elongation rate 21 varies inversely with soil resistance within a range of 0 to 7.5 MPa (e.g., Atwell 1993; 22 Bengough et al. 2011).”
- Influence of Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles on Germination and Plant Metabolism of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.): Preliminary Evidence (2019, background): “Furthermore, increased readily available fraction of P stimulated root elongation, which is the necessary condition for plant growth [52].”
- Root Phenotyping for Drought Tolerance: A Review (2018, background): “For example, elongation rate and number of lateral roots can be decreased by high soil water content or soil density and this can also be associated with shoot growth reduction [14].”
