Other claims from this paper (7)

Observation New fine roots are white and have root hairs.
Observation Brown and black fine roots are apparently dead.
Intervention effect Fine root production is triggered at the lateral-root level by precipitation of 2 cm or less.
Observation Short roots are suberized.
Mechanism Short roots probably cannot take up water themselves.
Mechanism Short roots serve as initiation sites for fine roots that grow rapidly after rainfall.
Association C. flava should benefit from projected increases in pulsed rainfall.
