- catalog abstract ""This volume gives an overview of how roots have adapted to the soil-environment and the roles they play in the soil ecosystem. The text describes the form and function of roots, their temporal and spatial distribution, and their turnover rates in various ecosystems. Subsequently, a physiological background is provided for basic functions, such as carbon acquisition, water and solute movement into the roots, and for their responses to three major abiotic stresses, i.e. hard soil structure, drought and flooding. The volume concludes with the interactions of roots with other organisms of the complex soil ecosystem, including symbiosis and competition, and the function of roots as a food source."--BOOK JACKET.".
