Pore-Scale Distribution of Mucilage Affecting Water Repellency in the Rhizosphere
The physical properties of the rhizosphere are strongly influenced by root-exuded mucilage, and there is increasing evidence that mucilage affects the wettability of soils on drying. We introduce a conceptual model of mucilage deposition during soil drying and its impact on soil wettability. We hypo...
