Root elongation, water stress, and mechanical impedance : a review of limiting stresses and beneficial root tip traits

Root elongation in drying soil is generally limited by a combination of mechanical impedance and water stress. Relationships between root elongation rate, water stress (matric potential), and mechanical impedance (penetration resistance) are reviewed, detailing the interactions between these closely...
