Traits and selection strategies to improve root systems and water uptake in water-limited wheat crops. (2012, background): “Root angle has been selected in bean breeding programmes and has resulted in varieties with shallow root systems to access phosphorus in the surface soil (Liao et al., 2001; Lynch, 2011; Lynch and Brown, 2001).”
Root anatomy and soil resource capture (2021, background): “For example, root maintenance respiration accounted for up to 72% of the growth reduction caused by suboptimal potassium (K) availability in maize plants in silico, and up to 38% of the growth reduction caused by suboptimal N or P availability (Postma and Lynch 2011b).”
A review of breeding objectives, genomic resources, and marker-assisted methods in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) (2019, background): “One of the key mechanisms identified to increase access to P is greater topsoil foraging resulting from root architectural, morphological, and anatomical traits (Lynch 2011).”
Sampling roots to capture plant and soil functions (2017, background): “…may exhibit great longevity, grow over long distances and play critical roles in soil stabilization (e.g. bridging soil layers and preventing land-slides; Stokes et al. 2009) and water and nutrient transport at large scales (maximum rooting depth, root growth angle; Lynch 2011; Comas et al. 2013).”
Nitrogen placement at sowing affects root growth, grain yield formation, N use efficiency in maize (2020, background): “Effects of the N application rate and placement depth on the root system Root growth is determined by both plant genetic characteristics and soil properties, and shows high plasticity under various environmental conditions (Hodge 2006; Lynch 2011).”
The role of complementarity and selection effects in P acquisition of intercropping systems (2017, background): “One option could be to select efficient cultivars (Lynch 2011), but perhaps a better option would be to combine crop species that differ in P acquisition strategy (Zhang et al.”
Utility of root cortical aerenchyma under water limited conditions in tropical maize (Zea mays L.) (2015, methodology): “…RCA for drought adaptation in maize is based on results from 90 simulations, and from analysis of North American inbred lines grown in controlled environments 91 and at agricultural research stations (Zhu et al., 2010; Postma and Lynch, 2011b; Postma and 92 Lynch, 2011c; Saengwilai et al., 2014a).”
Field Phenotyping of Soybean Roots for Drought Stress Tolerance (2014, methodology): “In our studies, the root crown had to be extracted from the soil for phenotyping [41].”
GROWSCREEN-Rhizo is a novel phenotyping robot enabling simultaneous measurements of root and shoot growth for plants grown in soil-filled rhizotrons. (2012, background): “Promising 12 belowground features which should be addressed in breeding programs to improved water and 13 nutrient uptake of plants are for example root growth, branching rate, and root angle (Hammer 14 et al. 2009; Herder et al. 2010,; Lynch 2011).”
