In plants, there are two types of root systems:

  • Tap root system - In this system, there is one main root that grows straight down deep into the soil. It has very few lateral roots that branch off of this main root. Tulsi plant has a tap root and radish plant has a modified tap root.
  • Fibrous root system - In this system, there is a group of small hair-like roots of similar size and length branching out from the stem. Bamboo and sugarcane have fibrous roots.
