Analysis and Modeling of the Variations of Root Branching Density Within Individual Plants and Among Species

Branching density (or the reciprocal: inter-branch distance) is an important trait which contributes to defining the number of roots in individual plants. The environmental and local variations in inter-branch distance have often been stressed, and simulations models have been put forward to take th...
