Wheat shovelomics II: Revealing relationships between root crown traits and crop growth

Shaunagh Slack, Larry M. York, Yadgar Roghazai, Jonathan Lynch, Malcolm Bennett, John Foulkes

The paper uses shovelomics to analyze root traits in wheat, finding that nodal root angle and root number per shoot correlate with yield under drought conditions.

Wheat shovelomics I: A field phenotyping approach for characterising the structure and function of root systems in tillering species

Larry M. York, Shaunagh Slack, Malcolm J Bennett, M John Foulkes

The paper introduces a new shovelomics method to phenotype wheat root systems, identifying heritable variation and genetic correlations in root traits across different plant structures.
