Root Strength and Trampling Tolerance in the Grass Paspalum dilatatum and the Dicot Lotus glaber in Flooded Soil

1. We studied the differences in root strength of species with contrasting root structural types (the grass Paspalum dilatatum and the dicot Lotus glaber), and their relationship with tolerance to simulated cattle trampling under flooding conditions. 2. Root strength was analysed through measurement...
