Abstract/Contents: | Describes nutrient absorption by plant roots, stating that "nutrient uptake requires the use of metabolic energy by root cells and that nutrients do not enter roots passively along with water." Notes that "beside their obvious roles in water and nutrient acquisition, roots also participate in the coordinated growth of plants and in their response to stress conditions." Describes how to achieve optimum root growth from turfgrass. |
