3D deformation field in growing plant roots reveals both mechanical and biological responses to axial mechanical forces

Strong regions and physical barriers in soils may slow root elongation, leading to reduced water and nutrient uptake and decreased yield. In this study, the biomechanical responses of roots to axial mechanical forces were assessed by combining 3D live imaging, kinematics and a novel mechanical senso...
