Root box used for peanut root system morphology research and usage method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a root box used for peanut root system morphology research and a usage method thereof, and belongs to the field of peanut cultivation. The root box used for the peanut root system morphology research mainly comprises a box body, a bottom case, a perforated plate, and PVC pipes. The root box used for the peanut root system morphology research is capable of completely displaying a root system on the perforated plate so as to realizing observing, photographing, sampling and the like on the root system morphology, structure, grading and the like on the whole or at different levels, so that the problems of high labor consumption, high time consumption and poor operability of existing conventional section sectional root digging and root picking; and thus, the root box has the characteristics of being high in operability, feasible for repeated use, movable and labor-saving. The invention further provides a usage method of the root box used for the peanut root system morphology research.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a root box device for studying the morphology of peanut roots and a method for using the same, belonging to the field of peanut planting. Background technique [0002] Scientific research institutes, breeding units and companies conduct research on the root system of peanuts every year, usually using methods such as digging roots in sections, pulling out whole plants in pots, manually selecting fine roots, and sieving through sieves washed with water. These methods have a large workload in the field, require a lot of labor, have high requirements on weather and soil conditions, and cause a large loss to the root system. They cannot obtain a completed root system, which is not conducive to the study of root system morphology and distribution systems, and consumes a lot of manpower. , material and financial resources. Moreover, when encountering cloudy and rainy weather, it will be impossible to carry out related work on the roo...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The invention relates to a root box device for root system morphology research. The root system is completely displayed on the punching plate, and the root system morphology, structure, classification, etc. can be observed, photographed, and sampled as a whole or at different levels. Rooting and picking up roots is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and difficult to operate. It has the characteristics of strong operability, reusability, mobility, and labor saving.
