Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of plant cultivation, and more specifically to an observation device for the growth characteristics of plant roots and rhizomes. Background Art

[0002] Root systems play an important role in the growth, development and life activities of plants. They not only support plant growth but also are the main organs for plants to absorb water and nutrient elements. When soil drought and salt stress occur, the root system, as a responder to drought and salt stress, first senses the physiological drought of water, and then induces a series of physiological changes, ultimately affecting the morphology and yield of the above-ground plants. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the roots in detail.

[0003] An observation device for the growth characteristics of plant roots and rhizomes with the patent publication number CN217695890U includes an upper table board, a base, a plant container, a fixing plate and an observation camera. A through hole groove is opened at the middle end of the upper table board. A support plate is arranged inside the through hole groove. The plant container is arranged at the upper end of the support plate. A driving shaft is connected to the bottom of the support plate. The bottom of the driving shaft is fixedly connected to a driving motor, and the driving motor is fixedly arranged on the top of the base. A display screen is installed at the outer end of the fixing plate.
