RhizoChamber-Monitor: a robotic platform and software enabling characterization of root growth

Abstract Background In order to efficiently determine genotypic differences in rooting patterns of crops, novel hardware and software are needed simultaneously to characterize dynamics of root development. Results We describe a prototype robotic monitoring platform—the RhizoChamber-Monitor for analy...
