Abstract excerpt
Phenotyping methods for seed morphology are mostly limited to two-dimensional imaging or manual measures. In this study, we present a novel seed phenotyping approach utilizing lab-based X-ray microscopy (XRM) to characterize 3D seed morphology, internal structures, and cellular analysis from a single scan. Seeds of pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.) an oilseed cover crop, were scanned and segmented using a machine...
