Phenotyping analysis of maize stem using micro-computed tomography at the elongation and tasseling stages

Abstract Background Micro-computed tomography (μCT) bring a new opportunity to accurately quantify micro phenotypic traits of maize stem, also provide comparable benchmark to evaluate its dynamic development at the different growth stages. The progressive accumulation of stem biomass brings manifest...
