Detection and characterization of spike architecture based on deep learning and X-ray computed tomography in barley

Abstract Background Spike is the grain-bearing organ in cereal crops, which is a key proxy indicator determining the grain yield and quality. Machine learning methods for image analysis of spike-related phenotypic traits not only hold the promise for high-throughput estimating grain production and q...
