A high-throughput UAV millimetric imaging pipeline for plant density phenotyping reveals high heritability in wheat-pea sole crops and intercrops.

Within-field diversification, notably through cereal legume intercropping, is a major lever of the agroecological transition. Breeding cultivars adapted to intercropping requires major changes in breeding practices, owing to strong genotype-by-stand-type interactions and the high spatial heterogeneity of low-input field trials. Part of this heterogeneity stems from variation in plant density, a…
