Bucciarelli B, Xu Z, Ao S, Cao Y, Monteros M, Topp C, et al.
Plant Methods . 2021 Dec; 17(1):125. PMID: 34876178
Background: The root system architecture (RSA) of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) affects biomass production by influencing water and nutrient uptake, including nitrogen fixation. Further, roots are important for storing carbohydrates...

Cox Jr K, Gurazada S, Duncan K, Czymmek K, Topp C, Meyers B
Plant Physiol . 2021 Nov; 188(2):703-712. PMID: 34726737
Plant cells communicate information for the regulation of development and responses to external stresses. A key form of this communication is transcriptional regulation, accomplished via complex gene networks operating both...

Duncan K, Czymmek K, Jiang N, Thies A, Topp C
Plant Physiol . 2021 Oct; 188(2):831-845. PMID: 34618094
Capturing complete internal anatomies of plant organs and tissues within their relevant morphological context remains a key challenge in plant science. While plant growth and development are inherently multiscale, conventional...

Dowd T, McInturf S, Li M, Topp C
Emerg Top Life Sci . 2021 Feb; 5(2):249-260. PMID: 33555320
A plants' water and nutrients are primarily absorbed through roots, which in a natural setting is highly dependent on the 3-dimensional configuration of the root system, collectively known as root...

Sultan S, Snider J, Conn A, Li M, Topp C, Navlakha S
Plant Phenomics . 2020 Dec; 2020:2073723. PMID: 33313546
Numerous types of biological branching networks, with varying shapes and sizes, are used to acquire and distribute resources. Here, we show that plant root and shoot architectures share a fundamental...

Goggin F, Lorence A, Topp C
Curr Opin Insect Sci . 2020 Aug; 9:69-76. PMID: 32846711
Through automated image collection and analysis, high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) systems non-destructively quantify a diversity of traits in large plant populations. Some platforms collect data in greenhouses or growth chambers while...

Li M, Shao M, Zeng D, Ju T, Kellogg E, Topp C
New Phytol . 2020 Mar; 226(6):1873-1885. PMID: 32162345
●Inflorescence architecture in plants is often complex and challenging to quantify, particularly for inflorescences of cereal grasses. Methods for capturing inflorescence architecture and for analyzing the resulting data are limited...

Agnew E, Bray A, Floro E, Ellis N, Gierer J, Lizarraga C, et al.
Curr Protoc Plant Biol . 2019 Nov; 2(1):1-21. PMID: 31725975
Phenotypic measurements and images of crops grown under controlled-environment conditions can be analyzed to compare plant growth and other phenotypes from diverse varieties. Those demonstrating the most favorable phenotypic traits...

Li M, Klein L, Duncan K, Jiang N, Chitwood D, Londo J, et al.
J Exp Bot . 2019 Sep; 70(21):6261-6276. PMID: 31504758
Inflorescence architecture provides the scaffold on which flowers and fruits develop, and consequently is a primary trait under investigation in many crop systems. Yet the challenge remains to analyse these...
