Titel:
"Root Hydraulic Properties Across Species: What Explains Their Variability?"

Description:

Why do root hydraulic properties vary so much across plants, and what factors control water flow through roots? In this 140-second video, Dr. Juan Baca (Forschungszentrum Jülich) presents our study analyzing root hydraulic properties across more than 200 species. Using data from over 240 studies, we show that environmental stress and root system age—not species or plant type—are the main drivers of variability.

All data are freely available in our open-access database, supporting further research and plant modeling.

In the series “My paper in 140s”, scientists from the Collaborative Research Center 1502 'DETECT' present syntheses of their project work that have been published in peer-reviewed papers.
