Lodging, the displacement of plants from the vertical position, is a critical issue in barley causing decreased yield, harvest difficulty, increased disease, and reduced grain quality During cultivar development, lodging is commonly assessed by visual scoring which creates challenges for robust…
Tolerance to environmental stress underlies the ability of a variety to consistently yield under increasingly variable seasonal conditions There is great potential to improve the efficiency and precision of identifying yield stable breeding lines using Digital Phenotyping, or the use of sensors…
