Designed nutrient-gradient phenotyping enables predictive ionomics of tropical leafy greens

Accurate prediction of edible-leaf mineral composition is challenging because tissue ionomes integrate nutrient supply, plant identity, growth dilution, water-balance regulation and cumulative environmental exposure. We combined a designed nutrient-gradient experimental framework with machine learning to predict leaf ionome using 1,163 Chinese spinach (Amaranthus dubius) and Chinese broccoli…
