Abstract Lodging in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) presents a significant challenge for plant breeders due to the trade‐off between lodging resistance and grain yield. Manually measuring lodging across thousands of plots is time‐consuming, expensive, and error‐prone, making selection for lodging resistance challenging in breeding programs ...

Abstract Advances in automation, imaging, and artificial intelligence have enabled large‐scale plant phenotyping, but image analysis remains a critical bottleneck for crop improvement and biological discovery. We developed an integrated multispectral phenotyping framework using imagery from the Texas A&M AgriLife Automated Precision Phenotyping ...

Abstract Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) is among the most consumed soft fruits and an important source of health‐promoting compounds. Among the key traits driving selection in breeding programs, yield is the most important. The standard way to measure yield is harvesting and weighing the total number of berries, a process that is laborious, expensive ...

Abstract Plant height is one of the key economic traits in spring oat (Avena sativa L.) and a major determinant of lodging, and consequently, yield potential. Understanding the genetic basis of the variation in plant height can significantly benefit plant improvement efforts.

Resolving early growth variation in Pinus radiata: Effective indoor phenotyping of juvenile trees
Abstract Indoor plant phenotyping facilities provide high‐resolution, dynamic trait data not achievable with other systems, but are rarely applied to trees due to size constraints. Using the model conifer Pinus radiata, this study evaluated whether early growth variation among three clonal genotypes can be detected and reliably resolved using indoor ...

Abstract Genomic prediction models that account for genotype‐by‐environment (G × E) have the potential to accelerate the rate of genetic gain for yield and agronomic performance, yet relatively few studies have applied G × E prediction in public soft red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) breeding programs.

Quantifying genetic and nongenetic improvement for grain yield in faba bean breeding
Abstract Faba Bean (Vicia faba) is a cool season legume crop, often grow as a rotation crop to improve sustainability of the farming systems. The Australian faba bean breeding program is publicly funded, with improving grain yield as a key breeding objective to increase grower profitability.

Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...

Decision support systems and plant phenomics
The Earth is being polluted and territories that were fertile less than a decade ago now become barren. Meanwhile the human population is rapidly growing and the consumption of food is increasing exponentially. To overcome these challenges scientists are working hard on identifying quantitative phenotypes improving which would allow to overcome the ...
