Insights into biomass accumulation and challenges in grain yield prediction of elite breeding materials using UAV‐based vegetation indices in soft red winter wheat

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract High‐throughput phenotyping (HTP) techniques have brought new opportunities to understand and evaluate key traits in plant breeding programs. Combining multiple measures through time and random regression models permits a more comprehensive understanding of the genetic and environmental effects on trait expression over time. This study aims to

Combining phenomic and genomic selection for pea breeding improvement

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a strategic crop in the development of sustainable agriculture. However, the genetic gain remains limited despite advances in breeding. Genomic selection holds promise to accelerate varietal improvement, but its high implementation cost restricts its use in crops.

UAV‐based RGB and multispectral vegetation indices as alternatives to light box‐derived dark green color index for turfgrass color assessment

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Traditionally, turfgrass color has been assessed through visual ratings or light box‐based digital image analysis, methods that are either subjective or labor‐intensive. In this study, we evaluated the potential of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based multispectral and red‐green‐blue (RGB) imagery as a high‐throughput alternative for capturing ...

Unmanned aerial vehicle–based spatiotemporal phenotyping and growth modeling for forecasting potato yield

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Monitoring spatial variations in plant growth and forecasting yield before harvest provides valuable insights for optimizing agronomic decision‐making in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivation. Although unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based remote sensing has recently enabled the development of tuber fresh weight (TW) estimation models, their

Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

BerryBox: An affordable computer vision system for postharvest phenotyping of cranberry and other small fruits

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Fruit size, shape, color, and percent fruit rot are important quality traits for breeding cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). Image analysis can be used to measure these traits, but affordable hardware for standardized image capture and integrated user‐friendly software pipelines are lacking.

Philosophy of phenomic prediction and its incompatibility with causal inference

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Breeding programs need to make decisions frequently to improve populations and develop varieties efficiently. These needs led to the development of genomic prediction in the early 2000s and phenomic prediction in the mid‐2010s. In practice, phenomic prediction techniques rely on the same statistical tools and computational frameworks as other ...

Bayesian optimized color filter: A fast method for segmentation of plant phenotypes from 3D point cloud images

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Multispectral three‐dimensional (3D) imaging offers substantial potential for plant phenotyping, yet manual segmentation of plant organs remains a bottleneck in breeding programs. We developed a color‐based filtering workflow for faba bean (Vicia faba L.) point clouds that optimizes lower and upper thresholds of spectral indices and broadband ...

Phenomic prediction of club wheat milling yields

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Near‐infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) provides a nondestructive method for estimating physical and chemical grain properties and is widely used in breeding programs to phenotype traits such as texture, color, moisture, protein, and oil content. Club wheat (Triticum aestivum subsp.

Scaling up soybean breeding: Satellite imagery delivers accurate maturity estimation across plot sizes

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Accurate and scalable phenotyping is essential for accelerating genetic gain in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) breeding programs. Traditional methods for estimating physiological maturity are labor‐intensive and prone to subjectivity, limiting throughput and consistency. This study evaluates the potential of high‐resolution satellite imagery
