Shaping 3D root system architecture (2017)
Journal Article

Plants are sessile organisms rooted in one place. The soil resources that plants require are often distributed in a highly heterogeneous pattern. To aid foraging, plants have evolved roots whose growth and development are highly responsive to soil si... Read More about Shaping 3D root system architecture.

Combining semi-automated image analysis techniques with machine learning algorithms to accelerate large-scale genetic studies (2017)
Journal Article

Genetic analyses of plant root systems require large datasets of extracted architectural traits. To quantify such traits from images of root systems, researchers often have to choose between automated tools (that are prone to error and extract only a...
