Conteúdo: | Reports concerning citrus roots and root systems are reviewed and examined for pratical inplications. Those aspects considered include: (1) root anatomy and morphology with emphasis on the relationship of root structure to function; (2) distribution of fibrous and framework roots, their variation with rootstock and soil environment, and the expected distribution for trees allowed maximum expression of inherent potential; (3) root growth those areas, e.g., periodicity of growth, in which there is conflicting evidence are identified and discussed; (4) the water and nutrient uptake activities of individual roots and the entire root system, the significance of mycorrhizae and a summary of root hormone physiology; and (5) a study of the root:shoot ratio in citrus,practical means of its manipulation and the relationship of root density and distribution to tree performance.
