Abstract/Description
Understanding plant adaptation to edaphic factors requires knowledge of plant traits and responses of the root system. Root anatomy is a good indicator of the strategies and limitations of plants to its environment, yet, it is underutilized in plant breeding programs. The following was written to serve as a guide for the identification and quantification of root anatomical traits.
