This study highlights how specific root phenotypes, like Topsoil Foraging and Steep, Cheap and Deep ideotypes, improve plant growth under nutrient and water stress. It emphasizes that root traits influence microbial communities, with synergistic effects between root phenotypes and microbial functions, potentially boosting crop yields and sustainability.
