Abstract
[ES] Plant roots perform multiple essential functions defining plant ecological success and
ecosystem 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 the
last decade, the adoption and advancement of a functional trait approach has greatly
improved our understanding of root ecology, evidenced by the recent increase of global
syntheses on root trait research (e.g., Freschet et al., 2018; Bergmann et al., 2020; Carmona
et al., 2021; Freschet et al., 2021). However, there are still gaps and controversy in our
understanding of root trait–functioning relationships (Freschet et al., 2021). Roots display a
wide diversity of morphologies and symbiotic associations (i.e., with mycorrhizal fungi and
rhizobium), which has made it challenging to seek general patterns across the diverse taxa
that 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 and
emerging topics, which collectively highlight new knowledge and critical knowledge gaps in
belowground ecology
