32    merkle_root    char[32]    The reference to a Merkle tree collection which is a hash of all transactions related to this block
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~What's this? where does it come from?
That ones a bit confusing and has to do with verifying all the transactions in the block more efficiently.  google "merkle tree".

When mining, how to fill this field?
