X-ray computed tomography uncovers root-root interactions: quantifying spatial relationships between interacting root systems in three dimensions

Research in the field of plant biology has recently demonstrated that inter- and intra-specific interactions belowground can dramatically alter root growth. Our aim was to answer questions related to the effect of inter- vs. intra-specific interactions on the growth and utilization of undisturbed sp...
