   Remove the leaves from the bottom nodes leaving a bare stem not terminating with a node. Dip the part of the stem below the leaves of one shoot into water, and then into a dry compound of Indole-3-butyric acid. Insert the cut stump into one of the cups provided, and fill with water saturated peat moss.

   The root system becomes more complex as the plant grows from a single root in a young seedling to a massive system of branched roots, often weighing tons in large trees. During all stages in a plant's growth cycle, there is a balance between the shoot system and the root system (Fig. 7.1). The root system must be able to supply

   Figure 4.1. The plant body, shown here as a tomato plant, consists of the shoot system (leaves, buds, stems, flowers and fruits) and the root system (roots). Each organ is made up of cells organized into tissue systems: dermal, vascular and ground. One way the vegetative organs (leaves, stems and roots)

   Plant root systems are organized in two basic ways. A root system composed of one primary root and many secondary roots branching off the primary root is called a taproot system. A fibrous root system is characterized by roots roughly the same size and length. A healthy root system is white or nearly white and smells fresh. A healthy root sys-

   What is the root system of a plant?

   • The root system is the descending (growing downwards) portion of the plant axis. When a seed germinates, radicle is the first organ to come out of it. It elongates to form primary or the tap root. It gives off lateral branches (secondary and tertiary roots) and thus forms the root system.

   How does a plant's root system change over time?

   • The root system becomes more complex as the plant grows from a single root in a young seedling to a massive system of branched roots, often weighing tons in large trees. During all stages in a plant's growth cycle, there is a balance between the shoot system and the root system (Fig. 7.1).

   What are the main functions of a root system?

   • The principal functions of roots are absorption of water and nutrients, conduction of absorbed materials and food, and anchorage of the plant in the soil. The primary root develops from the radicle in the embryo. It generally penetrates the soil to some depth; if it dominates, a tap root system results, with a main root axis and branches.

   What are the different types of root systems?

   • Carrots (Dacus carota), and beets (Beta vulgarus) are common root crops. There are two basic types of root systems: fibrous and tap. They are distinguished by the way they develop and by their appearance. Many grasses and small garden plants, for instance, when pulled up bring with them a massive clump of soil.

   What is a fibrous root system?

   • It generally penetrates the soil to some depth; if it dominates, a tap root system results, with a main root axis and branches. Fibrous root systems are formed by seminal roots arising in the embryo in addition to the radicle. Grasses are good examples of plants with fibrous roots. Adventitious roots may arise on stems and leaves.

   Is there a balance between a shoot and a root system?

   • During all stages in a plant's growth cycle, there is a balance between the shoot system and the root system (Fig. 7.1). The root system must be able to supply the shoot with sufficient water and mineral nutrients, and the shoot system must manufacture enough food to maintain the root system.
