High-Throughput Field Phenotyping Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for Rapid Estimation of Photosynthetic Traits.

Abstract

​= ​0.63). Our findings demonstrate that UAV-acquired multispectral data can effectively map photosynthetic traits with high spatial resolution, establishing it as a valuable tool for rapid phenotyping and spatial assessment of photosynthetic capacity in crop fields.
