Title
Modelling Applicability of Fractal Analysis to Efficiency of Soil Exploration by Roots
Erik 2004
Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Root length correlated with depletion volume, competition volume and relative competition at all times.
- Association Log fractal abundance correlated highly with log depletion volume in pooled three dimensional, projected root and zero centimetre slice analyses.
- Association Correlations decreased with root age and distance of slices from the root origin.
- Observation Field common bean genotypes differed significantly in fractal dimension and fractal abundance.
- Observation Field common bean genotypes did not differ significantly in lacunarity.
- Recommendation The authors recommend including fractal abundance, and possibly lacunarity, with fractal dimension when analyzing root exploration.
