Fig. 6: Developmental stage progression and leaf maturation rates over time observed in seven field and indoor environments.

From: Natural plant growth and development achieved in the IPK PhenoSphere by dynamic environment simulation

Fig. 6

Vegetative stage (V-stage) plotted as a best fit logistic growth curve (for fit to BLUEs, see Supplementary Fig. 8) representing the maturation of leaves of the maize population in each environment versus days after sowing (DAS). The first derivative of the fitted curve represents change in leaves maturing per DAS for each environment. Colors used: field 2016 as Sky Blue (#66CCEE), field 2017 as Forest Green (#228833), field 2018 as Silver (#BBBBBB), field 2019 as San Marino (#4477AA), glasshouse as Turmeric (#CCBB44), PhenoSphere avg as Froly (#EE6677), and PhenoSphere 2016 sim as Royal Heath (#AA3377).
