Abstract excerpt
Background and Aims: Root architecture is a primary determinant of soil resource acquisition. We hypothesized that root architectural phenes will display both positive and negative interactions with each other for soil resource capture because of competition for internal resources and functional trade-offs in soil exploration. Methods: We employed the functional-structural plant model SimRoot to explore how...
