adventitious root system diffuse or fasiculate root system
Fibrous - roots resemble fibers - there is no single primary root
Adventitious is the type of roots that Johnson grass has.Specifically, Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense) has stems above-ground and below. The subterranean stem is designated a rhizome. It produces both roots for anchoring in soil and gathering soil nutrients as well as shoots for increasing photosynthetic and seed-making activities above-ground.
There are thousands of species with fiberous root systems, the most common are many members of monocotyledonous plants such as grasses:Maize, Rice, Wheat etcMarigoldWhite Clover
The two main types of root systems are fibrous roots and taproots. Fibrous roots form a dense network close to the surface of the soil, while taproots have a main central root that grows deep into the ground with smaller lateral roots branching off.

Fibrous - roots resemble fibers - there is no single primary root
Grass typically has a fibrous root system, which is shallow and spreads out horizontally near the surface of the soil. This type of root system helps grass plants quickly absorb water and nutrients from the topsoil.
no, bamboo plants have shallow adventitious root systems
There are a number of different types of root systems, as with many things roots do not fit neatly into man-defined groupings. The three main, recognised systems are: Tap, Adventitious (commonly associated with monocotylednous plants) and aerial root systems (such as epiphitic plants) See related link for more information

Fibrous roots are thin, branching roots that spread out horizontally near the soil surface. They do not have a main central root (taproot) like plants with a taproot system. Fibrous roots are generally found in monocotyledonous plants and help in anchoring the plant and absorbing water and nutrients from the soil.
The two main types of root systems are fibrous roots and taproots. Fibrous roots form a dense network close to the surface of the soil, while taproots have a main central root that grows deep into the ground with smaller lateral roots branching off.
Some plants with taproots: * Burdock * Dandelion * Kudzu * Parsnip * Patterson's Curse * Poppy mallow * Radish * Turnip * Carrot * Green alkanet * Sturt's Desert Pea * Welwitschia *A potato is not the root, but more like the storage tank for the plant (of food water and minerals) called the tuber (too-ber). =]
monocotyledonous
Monocotyledonous plants have fibrous roots, which are thin, moderately branching roots that emerge from the base of the stem. These roots do not have a main taproot and instead form a dense network of roots close to the soil surface.
