4th IPPN Imaging Workgroup Webinar

This research develops high-throughput phenotyping technologies and open-source platform-independent analysis tools (PlantCV; http://plantcv.danforthcenter.org/) to quantify natural variation under temperature stress. An accession panel of Brachypodium distachyon was screened under, control, drought, heat, and drought and heat conditions and the resulting imaging data was examined for traits that approximate water-use-efficiency, biomass accumulation, and tissue senescence.
