This is a non-invasive hydroponic method to measure the root system architecture using routine lab equipments. This protocol allows the complete visualization of the plant's entire root system by manually spreading it. One of the main advantages o

We use simple laboratory tools to examine the root system architecture (RSA) of Arabidopsis and Medicago. The plantlets are grown hydroponically over mesh and spread using an art brush to reveal the RSA. Images are taken using scanning or a high-resolution camera, then analyzed with ImageJ to map traits.
