Soil texture and structure heterogeneity predominantly governs bulk density gradients around roots

Abstract Rhizosphere soil is known to differ from the bulk soil due to numerous physicochemical processes induced by root growth. The spatial extent and magnitude of the influence of roots on the surrounding soil is still debated controversially. To date, most studies focused on a limited number of...
