Designing future roots with the power of databases.
Databases are vital for participative science, particularly in root research. These platforms centralize diverse data, foster collaboration, and reduce redundancy. However, underuse remains a challenge because of lack of incentives, standardization issues, and low visibility. Increased database use could significantly advance the contribution of root research to crop development.
