TPSLab.com Presents Enhancing the Environment of Plant Roots:
Managing Nutrient Uptake & Microbial Relationships
by Larry Zibilske, Ph.D., Vice President of Research.
Presented at the ACRES USA 2017 Annual Conference, December 8th, 2017, in Columbus, Ohio.
Overview:
Plants are composed of a green part, growing above the ground that is readily
recognized and differentiated. We know almost instinctively how to separate plant
types based on their above-ground characteristics. But what is far less obvious is
their root systems.
Roots are the hidden half of plants that contribute more to the plant as a whole
than their functions of water and nutrient uptake. They are really very different
in form and function.
When they function well, plant health and nutrition follow. Many problems result
from poor root conditions, but better understanding of these sometimes subtle
problems can help ensure healthy roots and overall plant performance.
