The amounts of nutrients contacted by roots
Description
The maximum amount which can be contacted is equal to the volume of the roots times the concentration of nutrients in the particular parts of the soil through which they are growing. In terms of geometry it was found that hairs are several times more efficient than the root cylinder in taking up nutrients. Contact between the root surface and nutrients is of major importance for nutrient uptake by the roots. 8 refs
