High-throughput micro-phenotyping measurements applied to assess stalk lodging in maize (Zea mays L.)

Abstract Background The biomechanical properties of maize stalks largely determine their lodging resistance, which affects crop yield per unit area. However, the quantitative and qualitative relationship between micro-phenotypes and the biomechanics of maize stalks is still under examined. In partic...
