Understanding and improving crop root function

Herausgeber: Gregory, Peter J.

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Part 1 in this collection reviews recent research on understanding root system architecture and growth together key interactions in the rhizosphere. Parts 2 and 3 assess how roots respond to biotic and abiotic stresses whilst Part 4 explores how this understanding can be used to optimise root function.
