Strangling aerial roots are specialized roots that grow from the branches of certain trees, such as fig trees, and extend downward to the ground. Once they reach the soil, these roots can encircle and constrict the host tree or surrounding structures, potentially leading to the host's decline or death. This adaptation allows the plant to secure additional nutrients and support as it grows in competitive environments. Over time, the strangling roots can create a lattice-like structure around the host.
