Abstract

Models of the root system architecture are useful tools for studying the plant–soil system. They include several interesting characteristics: (i) they simulate both the structure and spatial distribution of the root system; (ii) they allow a straightforward integration of developmental processes at the root level (e.g. elongation, branching) and their interaction with soil properties; (iii) they enable the simulation of root–shoot interactions via plant resources or signals. However, few of them have been integrated into larger crop or ecosystem models, probably because they are too complex, or too specific to given species or stages.
