Crop phenotyping studies with application to crop monitoring

摘要: Crop yield must urgently be sustainably increased to accommodate a rising global population and anticipated climate change in the coming decades, in the face of plant stresses and limited resources [1]. Conventional crop breeding is limited by phenotypic selection and breeding efficiency. Crop phenotyping is defined as the application of protocols and methodologies to obtain a specific trait phenotype, ranging from whole plant or canopy level to cellular level, associated with plant biochemistry, function, or structure [2 …
