agricultural and forest area. The root, besides the basic function of sustaining the plant, is the part through
which plants absorb water and nutritious. In function of the importance of the root system of a plant and the
shortage of studies on this subject, this revision has as objective to approach the researched themes in the
forest area, regarding the environmental factors that influence the fine roots production, the available
resources in the soil, the variations in the roots longevity and the aging processes and turnover of the fine
roots. The root dynamics are sensitive to the climate and soil variations, and still variable in function of the
