Effects of Pi deficiency on different RSA traits. N22 and NH787 seedlings (4-day-old) were grown hydroponically under P− condition for 7 day. (a) Roots were spread gently and scanned to reveal the architectural details. The primary root tip is indicated by a blue dot. (b–g) Data presented for (b) primary root length (PRL), (c) total length of the lateral roots (TLLR), (d) number of seminal roots (NSR), (e) total length of seminal roots (TLSR), (f) total length of adventitious roots (TLAR), and (g) total root length (TRL). Values (n = 12) are means ± SE and different letters on the histograms indicate that the means differ significantly (P < 0.05). (h) Correlogram of the RSA traits in Pi-deprived N22 and NH787. The scale represents Pearson correlation values with reddish and bluish shades indicate positive and negative correlation, respectively.
