Phloem anatomy restricts root system architecture development: theoretical clues from in silico experiments.

The paper uses computational models to show that phloem hydraulics significantly affect root growth rates and final length by limiting carbon flow.

Simulating rhizodeposition patterns around growing and exuding root systems

This study develops a model to simulate rhizodeposition patterns around growing root systems, showing that root branching increases rhizodeposit hotspot volumes, especially for citrate.
