AB [ES] Plant roots perform multiple essential functions defining plant ecological success andecosystem functioning. For instance, roots are vital for plant nutrient and water uptake,thus regulating net primary production and nutrient cycling (Freschet et al., 2021). In thelast decade, the adoption and advancement of a functional trait approach has greatlyimproved our understanding of root ecology, evidenced by the recent increase of globalsyntheses on root trait research (e.g., Freschet et al., 2018; Bergmann et al., 2020; Carmonaet al., 2021; Freschet et al., 2021). However, there are still gaps and controversy in ourunderstanding of root trait–functioning relationships (Freschet et al., 2021). Roots display awide diversity of morphologies and symbiotic associations (i.e., with mycorrhizal fungi andrhizobium), which has made it challenging to seek general patterns across the diverse taxathat inhabit different ecological conditions worldwide (Ma et al., 2018). In this special issue,we bring together studies on root ecology that tackle important unresolved questions andemerging topics, which collectively highlight new knowledge and critical knowledge gaps inbelowground ecology
