Chlorophyll fluorescence-based high-throughput phenotyping facilitates the genetic dissection of photosynthetic heat tolerance in African (Oryza glaberrima) and Asian (Oryza sativa) rice (2023)
Journal Article
Robson, J. K., Ferguson, J. N., McAusland, L., Atkinson, J. A., Tranchant-Dubreuil, C., Cubry, P., Sabot, F., Wells, D. M., Price, A. H., Wilson, Z. A., & Murchie, E. H. (2023). Chlorophyll fluorescence-based high-throughput phenotyping facilitates the genetic dissection of photosynthetic heat tolerance in African (Oryza glaberrima) and Asian (Oryza sativa) rice. Journal of Experimental Botany, 74(17), 5181-5197. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erad239

Rising temperatures and extreme heat events threaten rice production. Half of the global population relies on rice for basic nutrition, and therefore developing heat-tolerant rice is essential. During vegetative development, reduced photosynthetic ra...

A Deep Learning Method for Fully Automatic Stomatal Morphometry and Maximal Conductance Estimation (2021)
Journal Article
Gibbs, J. A., Mcausland, L., Robles-Zazueta, C. A., Murchie, E. H., & Burgess, A. J. (2021). A Deep Learning Method for Fully Automatic Stomatal Morphometry and Maximal Conductance Estimation. Frontiers in Plant Science, 12, Article 780180. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2021.780180

Stomata are integral to plant performance, enabling the exchange of gases between the atmosphere and the plant. The anatomy of stomata influences conductance properties with the maximal conductance rate, gsmax, calculated from density and size. Howev...

High throughput procedure utilising chlorophyll fluorescence imaging to phenotype dynamic photosynthesis and photoprotection in leaves under controlled gaseous conditions (2019)
Journal Article
McAusland, L., Murchie, E., & Atkinson, J. (2019). High throughput procedure utilising chlorophyll fluorescence imaging to phenotype dynamic photosynthesis and photoprotection in leaves under controlled gaseous conditions. Plant Methods, 15, Article 109. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13007-019-0485-x

© 2019 The Author(s). Background: As yields of major crops such as wheat (T. aestivum) have begun to plateau in recent years, there is growing pressure to efficiently phenotype large populations for traits associated with genetic advancement in yield...
