Iterative image segmentation of plant roots for high-throughput phenotyping

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Accurate segmentation of root system architecture (RSA) from 2D images is an important step in studying phenotypic traits of root systems. Various approaches to image segmentation exist but many of them are not well suited to the thin and reticulated ...

Root system architecture for abiotic stress tolerance in potato: Lessons from plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The root is an important plant organ, which uptakes nutrients and water from the soil, and provides anchorage for the plant. Abiotic stresses like heat, drought, nutrients, salinity, and cold are the major problems of potato cultivation.

Estimation of Seismic Loss Functions for Typical Steel Office Buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Drought is one of the most important abiotic stresses and severely affects global agricultural production. Root system architecture (RSA) is the key determinant of water acquisition under moisture stress, and therefore has utility in breeding for drought

Two-dimensional root phenotyping system based on root growth on black filter paper and recirculation micro-irrigation

open access: yesCzech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2016
Plant root system architecture (RSA) has an important role in crop production, particularly for water and nutrient uptake under limiting conditions. In the last few years, several root phenotyping methods have been developed.

Genome-Wide Association Study of Topsoil Root System Architecture in Field-Grown Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Water and nutrient acquisition is a critical function of plant root systems. Root system architecture (RSA) traits are often complex and controlled by many genes.

Identifying seedling root architectural traits associated with yield and yield components in wheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background and Aims: Plant roots growing underground are critical for soil resource acquisition, anchorage and plant-environment interactions. In wheat (Triticum aestivum), however, the target root traits to improve yield potential still remain largely ...

A novel Brassica–rhizotron system to unravel the dynamic changes in root system architecture of oilseed rape under phosphorus deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background and Aims: An important adaptation of plants to phosphorus (P) deficiency is to alter root system architecture (RSA) to increase P acquisition from the soil, but soil-based observations of RSA are technically challenging, especially in mature ...

Exploring the relationship between environmental origin, phylogenetic relatedness and root system architecture (RSA) in wild lentil species [PDF]

open access: yesFunctional Plant Biology
Root System Architecture (RSA) plays a central role in plant performance by regulating water and nutrient uptake. As agriculture faces increasing challenges from environmental variability, nutrient limitation and water scarcity, identifying adaptive root traits in wild relatives is critical for developing resilient crop varieties. We

Environmental, developmental, and genetic factors controlling root system architecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A better understanding of the development and architecture of roots is essential to develop strategies to increase crop yield and optimize agricultural land use.

Comparative Genome-Wide-Association Mapping Identifies Common Loci Controlling Root System Architecture and Resistance to Aphanomyces euteiches in Pea

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Combining plant genetic resistance with architectural traits that are unfavorable to disease development is a promising strategy for reducing epidemics.
