Here, we used neutron tomography to quantify and visualize the water content in the rhizosphere of the plant species chickpea (Cicer arietinum), white lupin (Lupinus albus), and maize (Zea mays) 12 d after planting. We clearly observed increasing soil water contents (h) towards the root surface for all three plant species, as opposed to the usual assumption of decreasing water content. This was true for tap roots and lateral roots of both upper and lower parts of the root system. Furthermore, water gradients around the lower part of the roots were smaller and extended further into bulk soil compared with the upper part, where the gradients in water content were steeper. Incorporating the hydraulic conductivity and water retention parameters of the rhizosphere into our model, we could simulate the gradual changes of h towards the root surface, in agreement with the observations. The modelling result suggests that roots in their rhizosphere may modify the hydraulic properties of soil in a way that improves uptake under dry conditions.}, language = {en} } @article{HaberPohlmeierToetzkeOswaldetal.2017, author = {Haber-Pohlmeier, Sabina and T{\"o}tzke, Christian and Oswald, Sascha and Lehmann, Eberhard and Bl{\"u}mich, Bernhard and Pohlmeier, Andreas}, title = {Imaging of root zone processes using MRI T-1 mapping}, series = {Microporous and mesoporous materials : zeolites, clays, carbons and related materials}, volume = {269}, journal = {Microporous and mesoporous materials : zeolites, clays, carbons and related materials}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1387-1811}, doi = {10.1016/j.micromeso.2017.10.046}, pages = {43 -- 46}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Noninvasive imaging in the root soil compartment is mandatory for improving knowledge about root soil interactions and uptake processes which eventually control crop growth and productivity. Here we propose a method of MRI T-1 relaxation mapping to investigate water uptake patterns, and as second example, in combination with neutron tomography (NT), property changes in the rhizosphere. The first part demonstrates quantification of solute enrichment by advective transport to the roots due to water uptake. This accumulation is counterbalanced by net downward flow and dispersive spreading. One can furthermore discriminate between zones of high accumulation patterns and zones with much less enrichment. This behavior persists over days. The second part presents the novel combination of MRI with neutron tomography to couple static, proton density information of roots and their interface to the surrounding soil with information about the local water dynamics, reflected by NMR relaxation times. The root soil interface of a broad bean plant is characterized by slightly increasing MRI and NT signal intensity but decreasing T-1 relaxation time indicating locally changed soil properties.}, language = {en} } @article{UhlemannBansseLudwigetal.1995, author = {Uhlemann, Erhard and Banße, Wolfgang and Ludwig, Eberhard and Schilde, Uwe and Weller, Frank and Lehmann, Andreas}, title = {Ligandenaustauschreaktionen von Bis(acetylacetonato)dioxo-molybd{\"a}n(VI).
