Advances in field-based high-throughput photosynthetic phenotyping
Abstract Gas exchange techniques revolutionized plant research and advanced understanding, including associated fluxes and efficiencies, of photosynthesis, photorespiration, and respiration of plants from cellular to ecosystem scales. These techniques remain the gold standard for inferring photosynthetic rates and underlying physiology ...

Quantitative Evaluation of Maize Emergence Using UAV Imagery and Deep Learning
Accurate assessment of crop emergence helps breeders select appropriate crop genotypes, and farmers make timely field management decisions to increase maize yields. Crop emergence is conventionally quantified by manual calculations to quantify the number

Challenges and opportunities for quantifying roots and rhizosphere interactions through imaging and image analysis [PDF]
The morphology of roots and root systems influences the efficiency by which plants acquire nutrients and water, anchor themselves and provide stability to the surrounding soil. Plant genotype and the biotic and abiotic environment significantly influence

Estimating Biomass and Canopy Height With LiDAR for Field Crop Breeding
Above-ground biomass (AGB) is a trait with much potential for exploitation within wheat breeding programs and is linked closely to canopy height (CH). However, collecting phenotypic data for AGB and CH within breeding programs is labor intensive, and in ...
