Cotton Phenotypic Trait Extraction Using Multi-Temporal Laser Point Clouds

To cope with the challenges posed by the rapid growth of world population and global environmental changes, scholars should employ genetic and phenotypic analyses to breed crop varieties with improved responses to limited resource environments and soil conditions to increase crop yield and quality....
