Locating the microbes along the maize root system under nitrogen limitation: a root phenotypic approach
We highlight the importance of sampling location and architectural traits that may be associated with the microbial cycling of soil N. The exploration of synergies between root traits and microbes that participate in the N cycle has the potential to increase sustainability in agriculture.
