Improvement of Phosphorus Use Efficiency in Rice by Adopting Image-Based Phenotyping and Tolerant Indices.

ABSTRACT: Phosphorus is one of the second most important nutrients for plant growth and development, and its importance has been realised from its role in various chains of reactions leading to better crop dynamics accompanied by optimum yield. However, the injudicious use of phosphorus (P) and non-renewability across the globe severely limit the agricultural production of crops, such as rice. The development of P-efficient cultivar can be achieved by screening genotypes either by destructive or non-destructive approaches. Exploring image-based phenotyping (shoot and root) and tolerant indices in conjunction under low P conditions was the first report, the epicentre of this study. Eighteen genotypes were selected for hydroponic study from the soil-based screening of 68 genotypes to identify the trai
