Description:
Abstract:
Plant root anatomy and the effects of the root environment (such as water, substrate porosity, salt concentration, temperature, pH, and microorganisms) determine plant growth and performance. Both in the case of the soil and in the case of hydroponics, the root is the filter that controls the entry of various chemical elements into the plant's organs. The environment in which plant organisms grow determines to what extent the characteristics determined by their genetic potential (DNA) can be developed and therefore the potential for a successful production.
