Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic mapping of phenotypic traits generally focuses on a single time point, but biomass accumulates continuously during plant development. Resolution of the temporal dynamics that affect biomass recently became feasible using non-destructive imaging. RESULTS: With the aim to identify key genetic factors for vegetative biomass formation from the seedling stage to flowering, we explored growth over...
