-Rhizophagy
-Rhizophagy is a process by which plants consume bacteria and other microorganisms in the soil. This process is important for plant growth and health, as it allows plants to access nutrients that would otherwise be unavailable to them. Rhizophagy is particularly important in iAVS systems, where plants are grown in sand beds that are rich in microorganisms.
-In iAVS systems, rhizophagy is beneficial because it allows plants to access a wide range of nutrients that are essential for their growth and health.
-The sand bed in an iAVS system acts as a biofilter, removing excess nutrients from the water and providing a habitat for beneficial bacteria. These bacteria are then consumed by the plants, which helps to improve their growth and health. Rhizophagy is also important in iAVS systems because it helps to maintain water quality.
