Transient three-dimensional modeling of soil water and solute transport with simultaneous root growth,root water and nutrient uptake

A three-dimensional solute transport model was developed and linked to a three-dimensional transient model for soil water flow and root growth. The simulation domain is discretized into a grid of finite elements by which the soil physical properties are spatially distributed. Solute transport modeling includes passive and active nutrient uptake by roots as well as zero- and first-order source/sink terms. Root water uptake modeling accounts for matric and osmotic potential effects on water and passive nutrient uptake. Root age effects on root water and nutrient uptake activity have been included, as well as the influence of nutrient deficiency and ion toxicity on root growth. Examples illustrate simulations with different levels of model complexity, depending on the amount of information available to the user. At the simplest level, root growth is simulated as a function of mechanical soil strength only. Application of the intermediate level with root water and nutrient uptake simulates the influence of timing and amount of NO3 application on leaching. The most comprehensive level includes simulation of root and shoot growth as influenced by soil water and nutrient status, temperature, and dynamic allocation of assimilate to root and shoot.     

A model of water flow through plants incorporating shoot/root 'message' control of stomatal conductance

Abstract. A model of water flow from the soil into the plant, and from the plant to the atmosphere is described. There are three state variables in the model: the soil, root and shoot water contents. The flow rate of water from the soil to the root is calculated by dividing the gradient in water potential by a resistance, comprising the resistance from the bulk soil to the root surface, and that from the root surface to the root interior. The resistance in the soil depends on the soil hydraulic conductivity, which in turn depends on the soil water potential. The flow rate from the root to the shoot is given by the gradient in water potential divided by a resistance, which depends on the structural dry mass of the plant. Transpiration is described by the Penman-Monteith equation. The plant water characteristics can be modified to take account of osmotic and cell wall rigidity parameters. The model incorporates the concept of shoot/root ‘messages’ of water stress, which influence stomatal conductance. The message works through the generation of a hormone as the pressure potential in the shoot (mesophyll) or root falls. This hormone induces a shift of osmoticum from the guard cells to the surrounding mesophyll cells, which causes an increase (i.e. closer to zero) in the osmotic potential in these cells. This, in turn, causes a decrease in their pressure potential, and so reduces stomatal conductance. The model is used as a framework to address some of the issues that have recently been raised concerning the role of water potential in describing water flow through plants. We conclude that, with the hormone present, there is unlikely to be a unique relationship between stomatal conductance and shoot total water potential, since stomatal conductance depends on the pressure potential in the guard cells, which may differ from that in other cells. Nevertheless, this does not imply that water potential is not an important, and indeed fundamental, component for describing water flow through plants. Other aspects of water flow through plants are also considered, such as diurnal patterns of shoot, root and soil water potential components. It is seen that these may differ from the commonly held view that, as the soil dries down, they all attain the same values during the dark period, and which, as we show, is largely unsubstantiated either theoretically or experimentally.

A hydraulic signal in root-to-shoot signalling of water shortage

Photosynthesis and biomass production of plants are controlled by the water status of the soil. Upon soil drying, plants can reduce water consumption by minimizing transpiration through stomata, the closable pores of the leaf. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) mediates stomatal closure, and is the assigned signal for communicating water deficit from the root to the shoot. However, our study does not support ABA as the proposed long-distance signal. The shoot response to limited soil water supply is not affected by the capacity to generate ABA in the root; however, the response does require ABA biosynthesis and signalling in the shoot. Soil water stress elicits a hydraulic response in the shoot, which precedes ABA signalling and stomatal closure. Attenuation of the hydraulic response in various plants prevented long-distance signalling of water stress, consistent with root-to-shoot communication by a hydraulic signal.     

Influence of soil water deficits on root growth of cotton seedlings

Summary Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. H14) seedlings were raised in soil of differing soil water content in specially designed pots in which the roots had access to freely available water and nutrients located 2.5 cm below the base of the soil core. The time for root emergence from the soil core and the rate of root growth were measured daily from sowing to harvest. The root and shoot dry weight and leaf water potential were measured at the final harvest 16 days after sowing. As soil water content decreased, the root emerged from the soil earlier and the initial rate of root elongation was faster. In spite of the availability of freely available water, the plants in the soil at low water contents had significantly lower leaf water potentials than those in soil at high water contents. The root: shoot ratio increased as the soil water content decreased. This arose from an absolute increase in root weight, with shoot weight not being significantly affected.     

Plant nutrition and growth: Basic principles

Soil compaction may restrict shoot growth of sugar beet plants. Roots, however, are the plant organs directly exposed to soil compaction and should therefore be primarily affected. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of mechanical resistance and aeration of compacted soil on root and shoot growth and on phosphorus supply of sugar beet. For this purpose, a silt loam soil was adjusted to bulk densities of 1.30, 1.50 and 1.65 g cm^–3 and water tensions of 300 and 60 hPa. Sugar beet was grown in a growth chamber under constant climatic conditions for 4 weeks. Both, decrease of water tension and increase of bulk density impeded root and shoot growth. In contrast, the P supply of the plants was differently affected. At the same air-filled pore volume, the P concentration of the shoots was reduced by a decrease of soil water tension, but not by an increase of bulk density. Both factors also reduced root length and root hair formation, however, in compacted soil the plants partly substituted for the reduction of root size by increasing the P uptake efficiency per unit of root. Shoot growth decreased when root growth was restricted. Both characteristics were closely related irrespective of the cause of root growth limitation by either compaction or water saturation. It is therefore concluded that shoot growth in both the compacted and the wet soil was regulated by root growth. The main factor impeding root growth in compacted soil was penetration resistance, not soil aeration.FAX no corresponding author: +49551 5056299     

Modelling Water in Crops and Plant Ecosystems

A water submodel is described that is specifically designedfor use with plant growth simulators that represent internalplant substrates and variable shoot:root partitioning. The modelcalculates water flow from soil to root, root to shoot, andshoot to the atmosphere, for a closed-canopy situation. As presentedhere, the model has three state variables: the masses of waterin the soil, root and shoot, and represents the processes ofevapotranspiration, rainfall interception and evaporation fromthe canopy, and drainage. The Penman –Monteith equationis used for crop transpiration. The fluxes of water from soilto root, and root to shoot, are driven by water potential difference.Tissue water potential and its components are calculated fromtissue water content and other plant variables and parameters.The model is able to simulate osmoregulation and describes avariable relationship between tissue water potential, its componentsand relative water content, depending on growth conditions.The model has elsewhere been integrated with two plant ecosystemmodels: for grassland and forest. The specific implementationand simulations given are for the Hurley pasture model (Thornleyand Verberne, 1989), a temperate grass vegetative growth model.The model gives reasonable predictions for diurnal changes inwater potential, drying-down behaviour and other quantitieswithin the scope of the model.

Temperature effects on hydraulic conductance and water relations of Quercus robur L

The effects of temperature on root and shoot hydraulic conductances (g(shoot) and g(root)) were investigated for Quercus robur L. saplings. In a first experiment, conductances were measured with a High Pressure Flow Meter on excised shoots and detopped root systems. The g(root) and g(shoot) increased considerably with temperature from 0-50 degrees C. Between 15 degrees C and 35 degrees C, g(shoot) and g(root) varied with water viscosity. In a second experiment, the impact of temperature-induced changes in g(root) on sapling transpiration (E) and leaf water potential (psileaf) was assessed. Intact plants were placed in a growth cabinet with constant air and variable soil temperatures. E increased linearly with soil temperature but psileaf remained constant. As a consequence, a linear relationship was found between E and g(plant). The results illustrate the significance of g(plant) for the stomatal control of transpiration and the significance of temperature for tree water transport.     

Growth response to subsurface soil acidity of wheat genotypes differing in aluminium tolerance

Subsurface soil acidity coupled with high levels of toxic Al is a major limiting factor in wheat production in many areas of the world. This study examined the effect of subsurface soil acidity on the growth and yield of two near-isogenic wheat genotypes differing in Al tolerance at a single genetic locus in reconstructed soil columns. In one experiment, plants were grown in columns with limed topsoil and limed or acidic subsurface soils, and received water only to the subsurface soil at a late part of the growth period. While shoot dry weight, ear number and grain yield of Al-tolerant genotype (ET8) were not affected by subsurface soil acidity, liming subsurface soil increased shoot weight and grain yield of Al-sensitive genotype (ES8) by 60% and ear number by 32%. Similarly, root length density of ET8 was the same in the limed and acidic subsurface soils, while the root length density of ES8 in the acidic subsurface soil was only half of that in the limed subsurface soil. In another experiment, plants were grown with limed topsoil and acidic subsurface soil under two watering regimes. Both genotypes supplied with water throughout the soil column produced almost twice the dry weight of those receiving water only in the subsurface soil. The tolerant genotype ET8 had shoot biomass and grain yield one-third higher than ES8 when supplied with water throughout the whole column, and had yield 11% higher when receiving water in the subsurface soil only. The tolerant genotype ET8 produced more than five times the root length in the acidic subsurface soil compared to ES8. Irrespective of watering regime, the amount of water added to maintain field capacity of the soil was up to 2-fold higher under ET8 than under ES8. The results suggest that the genotypic variation in growth and yield of wheat grown with subsurface soil acidity results from the difference in root proliferation in the subsurface soil and hence in utilizing nutrient and water reserves in the subsurface soil layer.
