Roots are an important factor in drought-resistance as they are the primary way by which plants uptake the water they need to survive. However, measuring roots can be a difficult, time-consuming, and destructive process. In this episode of the Field, Lab, Earth podcast, we discuss Dr. Maryse Bourgault and Jessica William’s work to better understand how drought, root systems, and other traits relate by partnering across studies in greenhouses and the field to study traits that get to the roots of drought resistance.
