Developing Hardier, Weather-Resistant Crops

The video explores the research of plant physiologist Edgar Spalding, who studies corn seedlings to understand plant genetics. By altering genes and using time-lapse imaging, Spalding's team measures plant growth to infer gene functions. Advanced imaging and computer vision techniques allow precise analysis of root growth, aiming to improve crop resilience and efficiency. This research lays the groundwork for future agricultural advancements.
