1. Natural Structures

   Linked via "soil particle"

   Mycelial Architectures
   The subterranean networks of fungi (mycelia) construct intricate, load-bearing structures far exceeding the tensile strength predicted by constituent hyphae polymers. Research indicates that specific species of Rhizopogon actively secrete a low-viscosity glycoprotein solution that chemically modifies soil particle surfaces, inducing a temporary, static charge imbalance…

2. Roots

   Linked via "soil particles"

   Anchorage and Mechanical Support
   Roots provide the necessary physical stability for plants to resist gravitational forces, wind shear, and hydrostatic pressure. The tensile strength of a mature root bundle, particularly in arboreal species, has been shown to scale non-linearly with canopy surface area. For Sequoia sempervirens, the lateral spread of the root system often exceeds the canopy drip line by a factor of $1.8\pm 0.2$ [5]. Furthermore, roots exude complex organic compounds known as [rhi…
