• Traits and selection strategies to improve root systems and water uptake in water-limited wheat crops. (2012, background): “However, electrical resistance, measured with electrical resistance tomography (ERT), has been correlated with soil moisture and root biomass for alfalfa growing in a small container (Amato et al., 2009)—offering the possibility that it could be used for the in situ detection of roots in the field.”
• Electrical resistivity tomography as a non‐destructive method for mapping root biomass in an orchard (2011, background): “Nevertheless, it may be used for root length predictions in other instances, as shown by Amato et al. (2009), who found a significant relationship between ρ and both root biomass and length density in young alfalfa plants.”
• The emergence of hydrogeophysics for improved understanding of subsurface processes over multiple scales (2015, background): “The plant sciences literature is beginning to show recognition of the potential value of geophysical methods in a wide range of areas, such as ERT and SP for monitoring root function and biomass [Amato et al., 2009; Li et al., 2015], and mapping root architecture with GPR [Hirano et al., 2012].”
