abstract = {Due in part to recent progress in root genetics and
genomics, increasing attention is being devoted to root
system architecture (RSA) for the improvement of drought
tolerance. The focus is generally set on deep roots,
expected to improve access to soil water resources during
water deficit episodes. Surprisingly, our quantitative
understanding of the role of RSA in the uptake of soil water
remains extremely limited, which is mainly due to the
inherent complexity of the soil-plant continuum. Evidently,
there is a need for plant biologists and hydrologists to
develop together their understanding of water movement in
the soil-plant system. Using recent quantitative models
coupling the hydraulic behaviour of soil and roots in an
explicit 3D framework, this paper illustrates that the
contribution of RSA to root water uptake is hardly separable
from the hydraulic properties of the roots and of the soil.
It is also argued that the traditional view that either the
plant or the soil should be dominating the patterns of water
extraction is not generally appropriate for crops growing
with a sub-optimal water supply. Hopefully, in silico
experiments using this type of model will help explore how
water fluxes driven by soil and plant processes affect soil
water availability and uptake throughout a growth cycle and
will embed the study of RSA within the domains of root
hydraulic architecture and sub-surface hydrology.},
