Abstract excerpt
Aluminum (Al3+) toxicity is a major constraint to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) productivity in acidic soils, where it restricts root growth and impairs nutrient and water uptake. Characterizing root system architecture (RSA) offers an effective approach for early screening of genotypes capable of maintaining growth under Al3+ stress. This work aimed (i) to evaluate the effects of increasing Al3 + concentrations...
