Introductions

Plant Phenotypic Analysis

Phenotype is the appearance of organisms, referring to all visible and measurable characteristics that can be assessed from the outside without seriously disturbing the plant. Basically, it includes counts, sizes, colors, and other surface characteristics that convey structural phenotypic information. Moreover, the phenotype includes physiological characteristics such as photosynthesis process, water state, surface biochemical properties or temperature. In the past few decades, phenotype has developed into a basic tool to characterize the function and structure of plants, mainly through image-based plant traits and non-destructive optical analysis. Therefore, plant phenotype has become a tool suitable for plant scientists to understand the interaction between plants and the environment, and also suitable for plant breeders to choose ideal ones for their specific fields of interest genotype (such as drought resistance, pathogen resistance or increased yield).
