A canopy conundrum: can wind-induced movement help to increase crop productivity by relieving photosynthetic limitations? (2019)
Journal Article
Burgess, A. J., Gibbs, J. A., & Murchie, E. H. (2019). A canopy conundrum: can wind-induced movement help to increase crop productivity by relieving photosynthetic limitations?. Journal of Experimental Botany, 70(9), 2371-2380. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/ery424

Wind-induced movement is a ubiquitous occurrence for all plants grown in natural or agricultural settings and in the context of high, damaging wind speeds it has been well studied. However, the impact of lower wind speeds (that do not cause any damag...

Approaches to three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoot topology and geometry (2016)
Journal Article
Gibbs, J., Pound, M. P., French, A. P., Wells, D. M., Murchie, E. H., & Pridmore, T. P. (2016). Approaches to three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoot topology and geometry. Functional Plant Biology, 44(1), 62-75. https://doi.org/10.1071/FP16167

There are currently 805 million people classified as chronically undernourished, and yet the World’s population is still increasing. At the same time, global warming is causing more frequent and severe flooding and drought, thus destroying crops and...

Three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoots from multiple images using an active vision system (2015)
Journal Article
Gibbs, J., Pound, M. P., Wells, D. M., Murchie, E. H., French, A. P., & Pridmore, T. P. (2015). Three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoots from multiple images using an active vision system

The reconstruction of 3D models of plant shoots is a challenging problem central to the emerging discipline of plant phenomics – the quantitative measurement of plant structure and function. Current approaches are, however, often limited by the use o... Read More about Three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoots from multiple images using an active vision system.
