Root Washing and Scanning Facility
Julio Masnello, visiting scholar from the University of São Paulo, Brazil, washes corn roots at the new Root Washing and Scanning Facility located in an East Campus greenhouse. Analyzing these roots will contribute to a better understanding of root biomass and nutrient dynamics in corn-soybean rotations and help calibrate crop models. The facility and study is led by agronomy and horticulture research assistant professor Guillermo Balboa.
