Soil coring at multiple field environments can directly quantify variation in deep root traits to select wheat genotypes for breeding

We aim to incorporate deep root traits into future wheat varieties to increase access to stored soil water during grain development, which is twice as valuable for yield as water captured at younger stages. Most root phenotyping efforts have been indirect studies in the laboratory, at young plant st...
