Root Phenotyping for Drought Tolerance: A Review
Agronomy, 2018 Plant roots play a significant role in plant growth by exploiting soil resources via the uptake of water and nutrients. Root traits such as fine root diameter, specific root length, specific root area, root angle, and root length density are considered ...

Circulating miRNA repertoire as a biomarker of metabolic and reproductive states in rainbow trout
BMC Biology, 2021 Background Circulating miRNAs (c-miRNAs) are found in most, if not all, biological fluids and are becoming well-established non-invasive biomarkers of many human pathologies.

Non-invasive Phenotyping for Water and Nitrogen Uptake by Deep Roots Explored using Machine Learning [PDF]
Plant and Soil, 2023 Abstract Background and aims Root distribution over the soil profile is important for crop resource uptake. Using machine learning (ML), this study investigated whether measured planar root length density (pRLD) at different soil depths were related to uptake of isotope tracer (15N) and drought stress indicator (13C) in wheat, to reveal root ...

A Non-invasive Way to Isolate and Phenotype Cells from the Conjunctiva [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2017 Traditionally, ocular surface cytology is studied with techniques such as spatula technology and brush technology. The problem with these techniques is that they may induce traumatic lesions on the surface of the eye, which can progress to scarring, eyelid deformity, limbal stem cell deficiency and in some cases, cause great discomfort to the subject ...

Characterization of T2-Low and T2-High Asthma Phenotypes in Real-Life
Biomedicines, 2021 Asthma is a heterogeneous and complex condition characterized by chronic airway inflammation, which may be clinically stratified into three main phenotypes: type 2 (T2) low, T2-high allergic, and T2-high non-allergic asthma.

Rapid and label-free identification of single leukemia cells from blood in a high-density microfluidic trapping array by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy. [PDF]
, 2018 The rapid screening and isolation of single leukemia cells from blood has become critical for early leukemia detection and tumor heterogeneity interrogation. However, due to the size overlap between leukemia cells and the more abundant white blood cells (
