An Analysis of Soil Coring Strategies to Estimate Root Depth in Maize (Zea mays) and Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)

A soil coring protocol was developed to cooptimize the estimation of root length distribution (RLD) by depth and detection of functionally important variation in root system architecture (RSA) of maize and bean. The functional-structural model OpenSimRoot was used to perform in silico soil coring at...
