Root-mediated Crop Complementarity

Root-Mediated Crop Complementarity is a root system interaction mechanism whereby distinct crop species differentially exploit spatial or temporal soil resource niches through complementary root architectural, morphological, or physiological traits, thereby enhancing collective resource acquisition and yield in intercropping systems.
