Traits in Avocado Efficient root systems increase the use of resources and improve productivity of cultivated plants. Propagation techniques can influence the root architecture of fruit crops. Fassio et al. (p. 63) investigated the effects of current

cycad root communication. Root architecture is also responsive to the presence of neighbor roots in a manner that is distinct from biomass allocation ( Nord et al., 2011 ); therefore, determining root architecture responses to neighbor roots would also

-deficient plants have greater root dry weight than plants grown with sufficient P ( Vance et al., 2003 ). These increases in root dry weight are typically reflected in changes in root architecture as well. Most plants such as Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh

observed differences between these results may be due to differences in the planting sites ( Campbell et al., 2006 ) or the dimensions of the AP containers ( Mariotti et al., 2015 ). The preceding studies have primarily focused on the root architecture and

Bloom (1990) showed no clear relationship between tomato root distribution and soil N availability. Root architecture often changes in response to availability and distribution of inorganic nutrients in the soil ( Lopez-Bucio et al., 2003 ). High levels

different (Student's paired t test, P = 0.05). These results show that creeping bentgrass alters its root architecture with a nonuniform supply of P as observed in several species (reviewed in Hodge, 2004 ; Robinson, 1994 ). The mechanism for

day 30 of the experimental period, roots and leaves were harvested separately. Assays of plant growth and investigation of root architecture. To evaluate their dry weights (DWs), the shoot and root portions were oven-dried individually at 105 °C for 15
