This study was done with the aim of investigate on the root distribution of persian lime trees growing in a sandy soil and on a clay one in Martínez de la Torre, Ver. It was employed the soil trench profile method, and the roots were classified into four categories, according to their diameter: R1 (>15 mm), R2 (5-15 mm), R3 (1-5 mm) and R4 (<1 mm). The trenches were 4 m long, 1 m deep and 0.8m wide and three trenches were made for each tree (50 cm from the trunk, canopy perimeter and half-way between them). For each soil four homogeneous trees, twelve-years-old and nine-years-old for the sandy soil and for the clay one, respectively. The roots were grouped into three depth stratum (0-30 cm, 30-60 cm and 60-100 cm). The number of roots was submitted to an analysis of variance and to a multiple means comparition test, considering the depth and the distance from the trunk as factors. The higher number of roots was observed, for both types of soil, in the 0-30 cm deep soil stratus, decreasing in the deeper strata. The number of roots followed the tendency to decrease as the distance from the trunk increased. The most abundant roots were R4, or fibrous, followed by R3, R2 and R1.

This study was done with the aim of investigate on the root distribution of persian lime trees growing in a sandy soil and on a clay one in Martínez de la Torre, Ver. It was employed the soil trench profile method, and the roots were classified into four categories, according to their diameter: R1 (>15 mm), R2 (5-15 mm), R3 (1-5 mm) and R4 (<1 mm). The trenches were 4 m long, 1 m deep and 0.8m wide and three trenches were made for each tree (50 cm from the trunk, canopy perimeter and half-way between them). For each soil four homogeneous trees, twelve-years-old and nine-years-old for the sandy soil and for the clay one, respectively. The roots were grouped into three depth stratum (0-30 cm, 30-60 cm and 60-100 cm). The number of roots was submitted to an analysis of variance and to a multiple means comparition test, considering the depth and the distance from the trunk as factors.
