Using a standard framework for the phenotypic analysis of Medicago truncatula: an effective method for characterizing the plant material used for functional genomics approaches.

Abstract excerpt

A crucial step for identifying genes of interest in legume crops is to determine gene function in Medicago truncatula. To facilitate functional genomics in this species, an ecophysiological framework of analysis was developed. Our primary aim was to establish a standard terminology for identifying each organ on the plant. A standard system for the characterization of the vegetative and the reproductive...
