Plant roots and their environment : proceedings of an ISRR-symposium, August 21st-26th, 1988, Uppsala, Sweden /
Scientists, within a wide field, ranging from applied forestry and agriculture to physiology, ecology and the environmental sciences, are today more than ever involved in root and mycorrhizal research. New problem-oriented research fields have arisen such as the effects of fertilizers and pesticides...
