A multi image-based approach for modelling plant-fertiliser interaction.
This study assesses how a dynamic root system architecture may improve phosphorus root uptake from a fertiliser pellet.
Abstract
Phosphorus fertilisation is crucial for crop yields. However, traditional phosphate resources are dwindling, thus a more efficient use of phosphorus fertilisers is required for sustainable farming. This study demonstrates the scope of image-based models parameterised by elemental maps by assessing how a dynamic root system architecture may improve phosphorus root uptake from a fertiliser pellet.
