Most root patterns are distorted (guided) by three things--available
water, oxygen, and pore diameter. Most plants have limited ability to

Many have used mini-rhizotron tubes installed in the ground and then captured

for roots is then employed. The system is very effective at non-destructively
obtaining in situ root samples, but there are some obvious
