内容説明

This work offers an up-to-date, multidisciplinary presentation of plant roots, reflecting the explosion of information that has become available since publication of the first edition. It provides new coverage of current methods for investigating roots and the role of aeroponics in root research, the simulation of plant root architecture and the use of fractal geometry and scaling in describing root architecture, roots in human nutrition, and more.
