“…Image-based phenotyping of plant roots is based on the non-destructive (where possible) optical analyses of plant traits [37,38], and its main objective is to characterize the plant's anatomical, biochemical and physiological properties [39]. Root traits are more related to drought tolerance compared with above ground plant parts [20,40] and are key factors to maintain crop yield [4] under drought [41,42].…”

Plant roots play a significant role in plant growth by exploiting soil resources via the uptake of water and nutrients. Root traits such as fine root diameter, specific root length, specific root area, root angle, and root length density are considered useful traits for improving plant productivity under drought conditions. Therefore, understanding interactions between roots and their surrounding soil environment is important, which can be improved through root phenotyping. With the advancement in technologies, many tools have been developed for root phenotyping. Canopy temperature depression (CTD) has been considered a good technique for field phenotyping of crops under drought and is used to estimate crop yield as well as root traits in relation to drought tolerance. Both laboratory and field-based methods for phenotyping root traits have been developed including soil sampling, mini-rhizotron, rhizotrons, thermography and non-soil techniques. Recently, a non-invasive approach of X-ray computed tomography (CT) has provided a break-through to study the root architecture in three dimensions (3-D). This review summarizes methods for root phenotyping. On the basis of this review, it can be concluded that root traits are useful characters to be included in future breeding programs and for selecting better cultivars to increase crop yield under water-limited environments.

“…(Figure 4). Image-based phenotyping is a nondestructive method involving optical analysis of plant traits (Fiorani & Schurr, 2013;Furbank & Tester, 2011), and it mainly involves the characterization of biochem-ical, physiological, and anatomical properties of roots (Guo & Zhu, 2006).…”

“…Nondestructive methods are extensively employed as they do not cause any harm to roots and allow analysis of root phenotype in natural soil conditions (A. Li et al., 2022) (Figure 4). Image‐based phenotyping is a nondestructive method involving optical analysis of plant traits (Fiorani & Schurr, 2013; Furbank & Tester, 2011), and it mainly involves the characterization of biochemical, physiological, and anatomical properties of roots (Guo & Zhu, 2006).…”

Drought stress leads to a significant amount of agricultural crop loss. Thus, with changing climatic conditions, it is important to develop resilience measures in agricultural systems against drought stress. Roots play a crucial role in regulating plant development under drought stress. In this review, we have summarized the studies on the role of roots and root‐mediated plant responses. We have also discussed the importance of root system architecture (RSA) and the various structural and anatomical changes that it undergoes to increase survival and productivity under drought. Various genes, transcription factors, and quantitative trait loci involved in regulating root growth and development are also discussed. A summarization of various instruments and software that can be used for high‐throughput phenotyping in the field is also provided in this review. More comprehensive studies are required to help build a detailed understanding of RSA and associated traits for breeding drought‐resilient cultivars.

“…El genotipo, el entorno y su mutua interacción, tienen influencia cuantitativa sobre algunas características, de una manera compleja y dinámica [7]. Las respuestas fenotípicas son resultado de una gran cantidad de procesos, funciones y estructuras que cambian durante el crecimiento y desarrollo de la planta (o cualquier otro organismo) dando lugar a resultados fisiológicos y morfológicos observables y cuantificables [16].…”

“…Esta caracterización puede llevarse a cabo a diferentes escalas, desde un órgano hasta una población completa. Por tanto, el propósito del fenotipado es producir una descripción de las propiedades anatómicas, fisiológicas, y bioquímicas de la planta [16].…”

Son muchas las personas a las que seguro, tengo algo que agradecerles en la vida. Unas cuantas a las que les debería agradecer que su influencia, de una u otra manera, me haya llevado a la consecución de este trabajo. Pero sólo unas pocas a las que ahora mismo recuerdo mencionar en estos agradecimientos. Al resto, les pido disculpas, no os sintáis agraviados, es mi mala cabeza.En primer lugar quiero dar las gracias a mis directores de tesis, el Dr. Marcos Egea Gutiérrez-Cortines y el Dr. Pedro J. Navarro Lorente, por confiar en mí, darme la posibilidad de trabajar con ellos y poner a mi disposición los medios de que disponían. Con este trabajo, pierdo dos directores de tesis, pero espero ganar dos compañeros de trabajos y publicaciones.También quiero dar las gracias a las compañeras y compañeros del laboratorio, especialmente a Victoria, Marta, Claudio y Raquel, por echarme una mano en las cuestiones y dudas -sobre todo administrativas-que he tenido estos años.No puedo dejar de mencionar en estos agradecimientos a Marisa Rubio de la EINDOC. Siempre dice que no le de las gracias, que es su trabajo, aún así no siempre nos encontramos con alguien amable y dispuesto a ayudar.A todos aquellos profesores que a lo largo de mi vida académica me han dejado huella.A mis padres, por inculcarme siempre lo importante que era estudiar, y por su esfuerzo para que lo hiciese. A mi hermana, por su apoyo y confianza, siempre apostó por que siguiese estudiando.Por último y más importante, quiero agradecer a Mariajo su apoyo incondicional y sin límites, su enorme paciencia y su actitud positiva ante todo, que ha conseguido limar un poco -no mucho-mi negatividad. Quiero agradecerle también que haya sido mi primera y más estricta revisora. Por todo ello y mucho más, gracias.
