Phenomics: Next Generation of Agronomical Trait for Agriculture Crops

Agriculture now has facing different type of challenges to overcome by high through output technology with their management with respect to crops. The United Nations has established seventeen goal to achieve zero hunger and malnutrition by 2030, ensuring that people especially children have sufficient and nutritious food throughout the year. Plants phenotypes are affected by complex interactions of genome × environment × management they determine phenotypic variability by genetic components. Plant Phenomics is next generation phenotyping technology, play a vital role to study of plant growth, architecture, performance, and composition using high-throughput methods of data acquisition and analysis and overcome challenges in crop production. It is a correlation of high gene function, plant performance and environmental response, with resolution. The external phenotype is determined by the sum of the complex interactions of intracellular regulatory networks to control metabolic pathways and that is reflected in physio chemical as well as morphological phenotype. Phenomics is the field of image based analysis, non-destructive, phenotyping that permit to characterization of plant traits.
