A Short Review on the Development of Salt Tolerant Cultivars in Rice [PDF]

, 2016
Rice is staple food for half of the world. With a population of almost 9.6 billion by the year 2050, there is a dire need of developing techniques to improve the crop plants, not only in terms of better yield but also to withstand harsh environmental ...

Intact Detection of Highly Occluded Immature Tomatoes on Plants Using Deep Learning Techniques

Sensors, 2020
Automatic detection of intact tomatoes on plants is highly expected for low-cost and optimal management in tomato farming. Mature tomato detection has been wildly studied, while immature tomato detection, especially when occluded with leaves, is ...

A leaf phenomics approach for estimating belowground traits in North American licorice

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Selective breeding over thousands of years has prioritized aboveground yield, with little regard for changes belowground. Roots underpin plant growth and resilience, but our knowledge of these critical structures lags behind that of aboveground structures.
