Abstract

The invention provides a fixation device and a method for in-situ monitoring of a floating plant root system, which belong to the technical field of plant physiology and ecology. The fixation device comprises a box body, wherein the box body is an opaque hollow column which comprises a top panel, side walls and an opened lower end; the top panel is equipped with at least one root canal hole; and shape and size of the root canal hole are adapted to the shape and the size of a scanner root canal, and the root canal hole is used for insertion of the scanner root canal. The fixation device is used for the in-situ monitoring of the floating plant root system, is simple in structure and convenient in disassembly and assembly, can reduce sampling cost and measurement errors without interfering in normal plant growth or destroying the plant root system, and realizes the automatic, continuous and real-time monitoring of the floating plant root system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant physiology and ecology, in particular to a fixing device and method for in-situ monitoring of floating plant root systems. Background technique [0002] The root system is the main vegetative organ of plants, which absorbs various nutrients for plant metabolism and plays an extremely important role in the process of plant growth and development. Therefore, the study of root physiology and ecology has become the focus of current research. Root growth status is the basis of root physiological and ecological characteristics, and in-depth and accurate continuous measurement and analysis of plant root growth characteristics and parameters is of great significance for in-depth understanding of root physiological processes and ecological functions. However, because the root system grows underground, there are certain difficulties in accurate sampling, measurement, and observation, and the progress of root...
