FieldDino: Rapid In‐Field Stomatal Anatomy and Physiology Phenotyping

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stomatal anatomy and physiology define CO2 availability for photosynthesis and regulate plant water use. Despite being key drivers of yield and dynamic responsiveness to abiotic stresses, conventional measurement techniques of stomatal traits are laborious and slow, limiting adoption in plant breeding.

OsPIP2;1 impacts root hydraulic conductance and is a candidate gene for a drought avoidance QTL on rice chromosome 7

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In this study, we identified a rice plasma membrane intrinsic aquaporin (OsPIP2;1) as the candidate gene for a chromosome 7 locus driving drought avoidance, supported by established and novel physiological experiments measuring root hydraulic conductance in near isogenic and RNAi knockdown lines.

A highly accurate, low‐cost method for detecting and quantifying soybean leaf flipping phenotype during drought stress

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract A genome‐wide association study (GWAS) using digital images was conducted to delineate regions of the genome that govern the leaf flipping quantitative trait in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr). However, converting the digital data to numerical scores for downstream analyses was challenging.

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 ...
