functions including nutrient and water uptake,
anchoring and mechanical support, as an interface
between the plant and soil, root system architecture
study has become a topic on its own in many research
areas. Therefore, current research undertakings are
geared towards unraveling the development and
architecture of root systems with the premises that it
holds important information towards its exploitation
in any research program, which aims to increase plant
performance and economic yield. Nevertheless, there
is a well-established fact that Root System
Architecture (RSA) varies among different plant
species, and the variation is well implicated, even
within the same species, which is governed by the
plant genotype and environment. Furthermore, the
inherent difficulty of studying the root system
(because of soil opacity) makes them recognized as
being ‘the hidden half’ (Waisel et al., 2005), and
because of the aforementioned factors, and/or
probably some other unforeseen reasons, RSA has
traditionally been neglected by researchers (for
example plant breeders) in terms of integrating it as
an important selection criterion in crop improvement
