Pot binding as a variable confounding plant phenotype: theoretical derivation and experimental observations.

Abstract excerpt

MAIN CONCLUSION: Theoretical derivation predicted growth retardation due to pot water limitations, i.e., pot binding. Experimental observations were consistent with these limitations. Combined, these results indicate a need for caution in high-throughput screening and phenotyping. Pot experiments are a mainstay in many plant studies, including the current emphasis on developing high-throughput, phenotyping...
