Comparison of the different root architecture analysis methods. Comparison of the different root architecture analysis methods for plants grown in rhizotrons. A. Hand drawing of a 20-days old maize root system inside a rhizotron. The closeup shows disconnected root segments on the drawing. B. Same root system scanned after the experiment. The closeup shows roots overlapping and crossing.
