Assessment of acute toxicity tests and rhizotron experiments to characterize lethal and sublethal control of soil-based pests [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Characterizing lethal and sublethal control of soil-based pests with plant protection products is particularly challenging due to the complex and dynamic interplay of the system components. Here, we present two types of studies: acute toxcity

In situ Measurement of Rooting Density by Micro-Rhizotron [PDF]

Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1985
Measurement of the root system is becoming increasingly important to investigate the soil-plant system. A practical method to measure root length, the line intersection method was developed by NEWMAN (1966). The method can be applied for measure. ments of the root growth behind the observation window of a rhizotron (HEAD, 1966) but it does not afford ...

A Scanner-based Root Image Acquisition Technique for Measuring Roots on a Rhizotron Window [PDF]

HortScience, 2003
A simple flatbed-scanner-based image acquisition system was developed for the measurement of `Gala'/M9 ( Malus × domestica Borkh.) apple tree root growth in rhizoboxes with a transparent acrylic sheet on one side.

Advancing Canning Quality in Common Beans: An Integrated Farm‐to‐Can Framework Combining Breeding, Processing, and Artificial Intelligence

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are essential raw material for the canning industry. This article reviews recent advances in assessing canning quality and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into breeding methodologies aimed at developing genotypes with superior yield and canning‐quality traits.

Small Signaling Peptides in Sorghum bicolor: Integrating Phylogeny and Gene Expression to Characterize Roles in Stem Development

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Small signaling peptides (SSPs) are important regulators of plant growth, development, and responses to biotic and abiotic stress, yet their role in the C4 grass Sorghum bicolor is largely uncharacterized. To help fill this knowledge gap, 219 sorghum genes that encode SSPs were identified based on SSP sequences previously identified in ...

Using clear plastic CD cases as low‐cost mini‐rhizotrons to phenotype root traits

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2020
Premise We developed a novel low‐cost method to visually phenotype belowground structures in the plant rhizosphere. We devised the method introduced here to address the difficulties encountered growing plants in seed germination pouches for long‐term ...

MycoRed: Betalain pigments enable in vivo real-time visualisation of arbuscular mycorrhizal colonisation.

PLoS Biology, 2021
Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) are mutualistic interactions formed between soil fungi and plant roots. AM symbiosis is a fundamental and widespread trait in plants with the potential to sustainably enhance future crop yields.
