Abstract
Root and rhizosphere processes-high time to dig deeper.
Highlights
Why is it important to increase our understanding and awareness? The new challenge of global climate change is driven by an increase in atmospheric CO2 levels, a factor which in itself affects plant and root growth, but is expected to increase the intensity of climatic and edaphic extremes
Easlon and Bloom (2013) emphasize the important role of root-shoot signaling for plant acclimation to increasing CO2 levels
The response of roots to abiotic stress can be modified by some root-associated bacteria and fungi
Summary
Why is it important to increase our understanding and awareness? The new challenge of global climate change is driven by an increase in atmospheric CO2 levels, a factor which in itself affects plant and root growth, but is expected to increase the intensity of climatic and edaphic extremes. Easlon and Bloom (2013) emphasize the important role of root-shoot signaling for plant acclimation to increasing CO2 levels.
