Root biology and genetic improvement for drought avoidance in rice (2011, background): “In addition, lateral roots generally have a large effect on overall plant architecture (Yamauchi et al., 1987a,b) and play key roles in water uptake (Varney et al., 1993), particularly under drought conditions (Bañoc et al., 2000b; Wang et al., 2009).”
Root plasticity as the key root trait for adaptation to various intensities of drought stress in rice (2011, unknown): “the manners of developmental response of root system to water stress largely determines the plant’s ability to adapt to the condition (Wang et al. 2009; Wang and Yamauchi 2006; Yamauchi et al. 1996).”
The distribution of below‐ground traits is explained by intrinsic species differences and intraspecific plasticity in response to root neighbours (2013, background): “…diameter; Comas, Bouma & Eissenstat 2002]; and three traits associated with plant root foraging strategies [fractal dimension (D, Eshel 1998, Wang et al. 2009), specific root tip abundance (SRTA, Hertel, Leuschner & H€olschner 2003; Meinen, Hertel & Leuschner 2009) and average link length…”
