DESCRIPTION:Individual plants vary in their ability to respond to environme
 ntal changes. The plastic response of a plant enhances its ability to avoi
 d environmental constraints\, and hence supports growth and reproduction\,
  and evolutionary and agricultural success. Due to the opaque nature of so
 il\, a direct observation of belowground processes is not possible. Major 
 progress in the analysis of belowground processes on individual plants has
  been made by the application of non-invasive imaging methods including Ma
 gnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET). MRI
  allows for repetitive measurements of roots growing in soil and facilitat
 es quantification of root system architecture traits. PET\, on the other h
 and\, opens a door to analyze dynamic physiological processes in plants su
 ch as long-distance carbon transport in an also repeatable manner. Combini
 ng MRI with PET enables monitoring of carbon tracer allocation along the t
 ransport paths (e.g. roots visualized by MRI) into active sink structures 
 such as nodules. We will highlight our approaches for gathering quantitati
 ve data from both image-based technologies. In particular the combination 
 of MRI and PET has high potential for gaining deeper insights into dynamic
 s of root growth and\, for example\, interactions with microbes for reveal
 ing novel traits demanded in breeding programs for future crops.\n&nbsp\;
