Application of deep learning for the analysis of stomata: A review of current methods and future directions (2024)
Journal Article

Plant physiology and metabolism relies on the function of stomata, structures on the surface of above ground organs, which facilitate the exchange of gases with the atmosphere. The morphology of the guard cells and corresponding pore which make up th...

Mass screening of rice mutant populations at low CO2 for identification of lowered photorespiration and respiration rates (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction: Identifying rice (Oryza sativa) germplasm with improved efficiency of primary metabolism is of utmost importance in order to increase yields. One such approach can be attained through screening genetically diverse populations under alte...

Paving the way towards future-proofing our crops (2023)
Journal Article

To meet the increasing global demand for food, feed, fibre and other plant-derived products, a steep increase in crop productivity is a scientifically and technically challenging imperative. The CropBooster-P project, a response to the H2020 call ‘Fu... Read More about Paving the way towards future-proofing our crops.

Drones in the Sky: Towards a More Sustainable Agriculture (2022)
Journal Article

Space farming: Horticulture systems on spacecraft and outlook to planetary space exploration (2022)
Journal Article

Successful human space exploration requires more products than can be taken as payload. There is a need, therefore, for in-space circular manufacturing. Requirements for this include limited resource inflow, from either Earth or other planets and the...

Improving crop yield potential: Underlying biological processes and future prospects (2022)
Journal Article

The growing world population and global increases in the standard of living both result in an increasing demand for food, feed and other plant‐derived products. In the coming years, plant‐based research will be among the major drivers ensuring food s... Read More about Improving crop yield potential: Underlying biological processes and future prospects.

The deployment of intercropping and agroforestry as adaptation to climate change (2022)
Journal Article

Food security is threatened by the combined pressures of increasing populations and climate change. Agricultural land is vulnerable to overexploitation and environmental change. Within this review, we identify the role of multiple cropping systems as... Read More about The deployment of intercropping and agroforestry as adaptation to climate change.

Sunflecks in the upper canopy: dynamics of light-use efficiency in sun and shade leaves of Fagus sylvatica (2022)
Journal Article

Sunflecks are transient patches of direct radiation that provide a substantial proportion of the daily irradiance to leaves in the lower canopy. In this position, faster photosynthetic induction would allow for higher sunfleck-use efficiency, as is c...

Casting light on the architecture of crop yield (2022)
Journal Article

Crop canopy architecture is a central component of yield. The arrangement of leaves in three-dimensional space defines the efficiency of absorption of radiation and its conversion into dry matter at the canopy level. The description of architecture i...
