PocketMaize: An Android-Smartphone Application for Maize Plant Phenotyping

A low-cost portable wild phenotyping system is useful for breeders to obtain detailed phenotypic characterization to identify promising wild species. However, compared with the larger, faster, and more advanced in-laboratory phenotyping systems developed in recent years, the progress for smaller phe...
