Abstract excerpt
Root System Architecture (RSA) plays a central role in plant performance by regulating water and nutrient uptake. As agriculture faces increasing challenges from environmental variability, nutrient limitation and water scarcity, identifying adaptive root traits in wild relatives is critical for developing resilient crop varieties. We screened a diverse panel of cultivated and wild lentil (Lens spp.) accessions...
