Imaging the root–rhizosphere interface using micro computed tomography: quantifying void ratio and root volume ratio profiles
Root growth alters soil fabric and consequently its mechanical and physical properties. Recent studies show that roots induce compaction of soil in their immediate vicinity, a region that is central for plant health. However, high quality quantification of root influence on the soil fabric, able to...
