By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-A new study on Robotics is now availab le. According to news reporting originating in Atlanta, Georgia, by NewsRx journ alists, research stated, "The study of plant root growth in real time has been d ifficult to achieve in an automated, high-throughput, and systematic fashion. Dy namic imaging of plant roots is important in order to discover novel root growth behaviors and to deepen our understanding of how roots interact with their envi ronments." Funders for this research include National Science Foundation, Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, John S. Dunn Foundation. The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from the Georgia Institute of Technology, "We designed and implemented the Generating Rhizodynamic Observa tions Over Time (GROOT) robot, an automated, high-throughput imaging system that enables time-lapse imaging of 90 containers of plants and their roots growing i n a clear gel medium over the duration of weeks to months. The system uses low-c ost, widely available materials. As a proof of concept, we employed GROOT to col lect images of root growth of Oryza sativa, Hudsonia montana, and multiple speci es of orchids including Platanthera integrilabia over six months."
