effects of water availability on root growth and morphology in an Amazon rainforest

This study examined how root growth and morphology were affected by variation in soil moisture at four Amazon rainforest sites with contrasting vegetation and soil types. Mean annual site root mass, length and surface area growth ranged between 3-7 t ha⁻¹, 2-4 km m⁻² and 8-12 m² m⁻² respectively. Me...

Abstract This study examined how root growth and morphology were affected by variation in soil moisture at four Amazon rainforest sites with contrasting vegetation and soil types. Mean annual site root mass, length and surface area growth ranged between 3-7 t ha⁻¹, 2-4 km m⁻² and 8-12 m² m⁻² respectively. Mean site specific root length and surface area varied between 8-10 km kg⁻¹ and 24-34 m² kg⁻¹. Growth of root mass, length and surface area was lower when soil water was depleted (P < 0.001) while specific root length and surface area showed the opposite pattern (P < 0.001). These results indicate that changes in root length and surface area per unit mass, and pulses in root growth to exploit transient periods of high soil water availability may be important means for trees in this ecosystem to increase nutrient and water uptake under seasonal and longer-term drought conditions.
AbstractList Effects of water availability on root growth and morphology in an Amazon rainforest are investigated. Root growth is consistently lower in drier soils, while root specific length (SRL) and root specific area (SRA) display the opposite response. Observed changes in SRL and SRA suggest that altering root morphology may provide an important additional strategy for plants to increase water uptake. There is substantial spatial heterogeneity in root growth and morphology, but these variables respond to changes in soil moisture in a similar way across different vegetation and soil types. Whilst there is a significant relationship between some root characteristics and soil moisture at this study site, none of the environmental variables measured can explain the majority of within-site spatial variation.
This study examined how root growth and morphology were affected by variation in soil moisture at four Amazon rainforest sites with contrasting vegetation and soil types. Mean annual site root mass, length and surface area growth ranged between 3-7 t ha-1, 2-4 km m-2 and 8-12 m2 m-2 respectively. Mean site specific root length and surface area varied between 8-10 km kg-1 and 24-34 m2 kg-1. Growth of root mass, length and surface area was lower when soil water was depleted (P<0.001) while specific root length and surface area showed the opposite pattern (P<0.001). These results indicate that changes in root length and surface area per unit mass, and pulses in root growth to exploit transient periods of high soil water availability may be important means for trees in this ecosystem to increase nutrient and water uptake under seasonal and longer-term drought conditions.

This study examined how root growth and morphology were affected by variation in soil moisture at four Amazon rainforest sites with contrasting vegetation and soil types. Mean annual site root mass, length and surface area growth ranged between 3-7 t ha⁻¹, 2-4 km m⁻² and 8-12 m² m⁻² respectively. Mean site specific root length and surface area varied between 8-10 km kg⁻¹ and 24-34 m² kg⁻¹. Growth of root mass, length and surface area was lower when soil water was depleted (P < 0.001) while specific root length and surface area showed the opposite pattern (P < 0.001). These results indicate that changes in root length and surface area per unit mass, and pulses in root growth to exploit transient periods of high soil water availability may be important means for trees in this ecosystem to increase nutrient and water uptake under seasonal and longer-term drought conditions.
This study examined how root growth and morphology were affected by variation in soil moisture at four Amazon rainforest sites with contrasting vegetation and soil types. Mean annual site root mass, length and surface area growth ranged between 3–7 t ha-1, 2–4 km m-2 and 8–12 m2 m-2 respectively. Mean site specific root length and surface area varied between 8–10 km kg-1 and 24– 34 m2 kg-1. Growth of root mass, length and surface area was lower when soil water was depleted (P< 0.001) while specific root length and surface area showed the opposite pattern (P<0.001). These results indicate that changes in root length and surface area per unit mass, and pulses in root growth to exploit transient periods of high soil water availability may be important means for trees in this ecosystem to increase nutrient and water uptake under seasonal and longer-term drought conditions.
This study examined how root growth and morphology were affected by variation in soil moisture at four Amazon rainforest sites with contrasting vegetation and soil types. Mean annual site root mass, length and surface area growth ranged between 3–7 t ha −1 , 2–4 km m −2 and 8–12 m 2 m −2 respectively. Mean site specific root length and surface area varied between 8–10 km kg −1 and 24–34 m 2 kg −1 . Growth of root mass, length and surface area was lower when soil water was depleted ( P  < 0.001) while specific root length and surface area showed the opposite pattern ( P  < 0.001). These results indicate that changes in root length and surface area per unit mass, and pulses in root growth to exploit transient periods of high soil water availability may be important means for trees in this ecosystem to increase nutrient and water uptake under seasonal and longer-term drought conditions.
