Quantification of the tissue and cellular structure of plant material is essential for the study of a variety of plant sciences applications. Currently, many methods for sectioning plant material are either low throughput or involve free-hand section... Read More about An updated protocol for high throughput plant tissue sectioning.

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...
