摘要

•When grown in soils, plant roots are notoriously difficult to observe and study.•X-ray computed tomography (CT) can be used to analyse roots in situ within the soil.•We discuss the use of X-ray CT, including its strengths and limitations.•Both conventional X-ray CT and synchrotron-based X-ray CT are discussed.•This information will assist others in using X-ray CT to solve a range of problems.
