An image measurement system for phenotype analysis of rice seedlings growth

Abstract

We developed an imaging system and image analysis software for phenotype analysis of rice seedlings growth. The developed imaging system could collect rice seedlings growth images in test tubes every 10 minutes. The image analysis software could detect leaf tip points and collect measurement of leaf height. Using this system, we could obtain detailed measurement and analysis phenotype of rice seedlings growth depends on time parameters germination timing and leaf elongation timing. © 2008 The Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
