The answer here is really dependent more on the type of plant and not the type of root system it has. Some plants just naturally use a great deal more water than others do. Watermelons for instance use a great deal of water.  Trees are another source of plant that uses a lot of water. Both of these plants have different types of roots but use a lot of water to grow.
