Abstract
Color patterning contributes to important plant traits that influence ecological interactions, horticultural breeding, and agricultural performance. High-throughput phenotyping of color is valuable for understanding plant biology and selecting for traits related to color during plant breeding. Here we present ColourQuant, an automated high-throughput pipeline that allows users to extract color phenotypes from images. This pipeline includes methods for color phenotyping using mean pixel values, a Gaussian density estimator of CIELAB color, and the analysis of shape-independent color patterning by circular deformation.Entities:
