Using high-throughput multiple optical phenotyping to decipher the genetic architecture of maize drought tolerance

Abstract Background Drought threatens the food supply of the world population. Dissecting the dynamic responses of plants to drought will be beneficial for breeding drought-tolerant crops, as the genetic controls of these responses remain largely unknown. Results Here we develop a high-throughput mu...
