      abstract     = {In the coming decades, larger genetic gains in yield will
                      be necessary to meet projected demand, and this must be
                      achieved despite the destabilizing impacts of climate change
                      on crop production. The root systems of crops capture the
                      water and nutrients needed to support crop growth, and
                      improved root systems tailored to the challenges of specific
                      agricultural environments could improve climate resiliency.
                      Each component of root initiation, growth and development is
                      controlled genetically and responds to the environment,
                      which translates to a complex quantitative system to
                      navigate for the breeder, but also a world of opportunity
                      given the right tools. In this review, we argue that it is
                      important to know more about the ‘hidden half’ of crop
                      plants and hypothesize that crop improvement could be
                      further enhanced using approaches that directly target
                      selection for root system architecture. To explore these
                      issues, we focus predominantly on bread wheat (Triticum
                      aestivum L.), a staple crop that plays a major role in
                      underpinning global food security. We review the tools
                      available for root phenotyping under controlled and field
                      conditions and the use of these platforms alongside modern
                      genetics and genomics resources to dissect the genetic
                      architecture controlling the wheat root system. To
                      contextualize these advances for applied wheat breeding, we
                      explore questions surrounding which root system
                      architectures should be selected for, which agricultural
                      environments and genetic trait configurations of breeding
                      populations are these best suited to, and how might direct
                      selection for these root ideotypes be implemented in
                      practice.},
