Method for scanning morpha structure of plant fibrous root systems

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for scanning morpha structures of plant fibrous root systems, which comprises the following steps: the plant fibrous root systems are placed into an exquisite glass tank containing water to enable the plant fibrous root systems to be completely stretched, the glass tank containing water is placed on a glass sheet of a scanner, and the scanner is covered by a cover board and then scans the plant fibrous root systems. The method for scanning morpha structures of plant fibrous root systems enhances the precesion of analysis results of scanning images of the plant fibrous root systems and the scanning accuracy of the plant fibrous root system images and provides convenient conditions for the root system morpha structure analysis of fibrous root system plants.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a scanning method, in particular to a method for scanning the morphological structure of plant fibrous roots. Background technique [0002] The root system plays a supporting role for the plant, is the water and salt absorption organ of the plant, and plays an important role in the biogeochemical cycle of the ecosystem. According to the different forms of plant roots, the root system can generally be divided into tap root system and fibrous root system. Most herbaceous monocotyledonous plants belong to fibrous root system, for example: gramineous plants such as rice, wheat, various weeds, alfalfa, and herbaceous dicotyledonous plants such as sweet potato also have fibrous root system. The main root of the fibrous root system is underdeveloped, mainly composed of multiple adventitious roots growing from the hypocotyl and stem. The roots that make up the root system are not thickened, and the thickness of each root is similar. ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Although the root system has also been pretreated, the fibrous root system is not easy to open, especially the capillary roots of great research significance (diameter<1mm) are not easy to be separated. Compared with the drainage method, the root image analysis results (root system surface area, root system volume, The accuracy of the root system density) is reduced, and the morphological structure of the fibrous root system cannot be observed correctly during the image acquisition process, so that the analysis results are smaller than the actual value, and there is a lack of accuracy between repetitions

Therefore, since the invention of flat-panel scanning technology, researchers who conduct underground root research have been trying to improve the accuracy of fibrous root system analysis, but have not yet found a more accurate scanning method.
