Fibrous root system

The fibrous root system of the old palm of the species Roystonea regia from Calcutta ( India )

The fibrous root system is the root system , which is represented mainly by the adventitious roots , in which the main root does not stand out.

The following plants, for example, have this kind of root systems:

• Coconut Palm ( Cocos nucifera )
• Fern-shaped ( Pteridophyta )
• Marigolds ( Tagetes sp. )
• Wheat
• Barley
• Bow
• Garlic

In general, the fibrous root system is characteristic of the vast majority of monocotyledons . Among the dicotyledonous, the fibrous root system is, for example, in plantain. In many dicotyledonous plants (creeping clover. Creeping buttercup, creeping tenacity, strawberry, etc.), the fibrous root system develops in plants resulting from vegetative propagation by whiskers, rhizomes, leaves, etc.
