Response of Soybean Root to Phosphorus Deficiency under Sucrose Feeding: Insight from Morphological and Metabolome Characterizations

Table 1

Root morphological responses of L13 and T3 soybeans grown in P-deficient (-P) and normal P (+P) conditions fed with (+S) or without sucrose (-S).

Genotype	Treatment	Total root length (cm)	Root surface area (cm^2)	Root volume (cm^3)	Number of lateral roots

	-S-P	^b	ab	^abc	^bcde
	-S+P	^c	^cd	^abcd	^bcd
