[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The purpose of roots in a plant is to anchor the plant in the soil, absorb water and nutrients, and store energy. A disease that harms the roots of a flowering plant would prevent it from effectively absorbing water and nutrients, ultimately leading to stunted growth, wilting, and decreased overall health, potentially resulting in the plant's death.
