Non-destructive Method for Root Elongation Measurement in Soil Using Acoustic Emission Sensors: II. Spatial measurement of single root elongation

A non-destructive method for measurements of spatial root elongation in soil, using acoustic emission (AE) sensors, was developed. Growing roots passing in close proximity to soil particles generate AE pulses, which are detectable as counts by AE sensors. Previously, vertical maize (Zea mays L.) roo...
