The nodal root system supplies up to 80% the water maize needs to grow into maturity, making this root system particularly important in later stages of growth. I use the rainout shelters (<a href=\"http:\/\/mizzouwire.missouri.edu\/stories\/2011\/drought-simulator\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/mizzouwire.missouri.edu\/stories\/2011\/drought-simulator\/index.php<\/a>) at Bradford Research Farm to impose drought on maize plants, enabling the study of nodal root systems under controlled water treatments in a field setting. Current projects consist of taking laboratory discoveries in the primary root system out to the field.<\/p>\n<h5>Posters\/Presentations\/Publications<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div>Thompson, H., Alexander, D., Sharp, R.
