  2. Phreatophyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phreatophyte

    A phreatophyte is a deep-rooted plant that obtains a significant portion of the water that it needs from the phreatic zone (zone of saturation) or the capillary fringe above the phreatic zone. Phreatophytes are plants that are supplied with surface water and often have their roots constantly in touch with moisture.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botanical_prospecting_for...

    The second method uses a survey of deep-rooted plants in an area of interest. This works because the plant roots carry uranium to the surface, where it is concentrated in growing areas of the plant. Juniper or saltbrush are usually used, as they are known uranium concentrators. Samples of tree branch tips and leaves are taken from each area in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taproot

    Most trees begin life with a taproot, [3] but after one to a few years the main root system changes to a wide-spreading fibrous root system with mainly horizontal-growing surface roots and only a few vertical, deep-anchoring roots.

  6. Root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root

    Some roots can grow as deep as the tree is high. The majority of roots on most plants are however found relatively close to the surface where nutrient availability and aeration are more favourable for growth. Rooting depth may be physically restricted by rock or compacted soil close below the surface, or by anaerobic soil conditions.

  7. Alfalfa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfalfa

    The plant grows to a height of up to 1 metre (3 + 1 ⁄ 2 feet), and has a deep root system, sometimes growing to a depth of more than 15 m (49 ft) to reach groundwater. Typically the root system grows to a depth of 2–3 m (7–10 ft) depending on subsoil constraints. [4]
