Plant Biomass

Plant biomass is the wet weight of the lentil plant including both above and below ground plant material. Due to an indeterminate growth habit, lentil plants often continue to flower as long as growing conditions remain favourable for vegitative growth (Saskatchewan Ministry Agriculture & University of Saskatchewan, 2017).

Trait Distribution Plot 

The phenotypic data is best summarized in a trait distribution chart. To see the summary for your experiment of interest, select it from the drop-down below. If the trait was measured with multiple methods in this experiment, you will see each method displayed in it's own chart.

Single Plant Biomass (grams)
Figure: Comparison of observed Plant Biomass (Single Plant Biomass) between site years for AGILE Activity 2: Phenotyping in three major lentil production macro-environments.
Plant Biomass was measured in grams.The wet weight of a single randomly chosen plant was measured. Plants near the margins of the plot were not chosen. Replicates were then averaged per germplasm within a single site-year. The chart shows the traditional box plot with the kernel density estimation flanking it. Thus values in a wider section of the plot represent higher probability that members of the sampled germplasm collection will show that phenotype.
