Synergy between a shallow root system with a DRO1 homologue and localized P application improves P uptake of lowland rice

Abstract Improved phosphorus (P) use efficiency for crop production is needed, given the depletion of phosphorus ore deposits, and increasing ecological concerns about its excessive use. Root system architecture (RSA) is important in efficiently capturing immobile P in soils, while agronomically, lo...
