This study includes two manuals that describe the use of diverse phenotyping techniques for applied crop research, with an emphasis on the methods commonly used at the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT). Volume 1 (Interdisciplinary Approaches to Improve Crop Adaptation) outlines the basic theory behind physiological traits and Volume 2 (A Field Guide to Wheat Phenotyping) provides guidance on the accurate and reliable measurement of these traits throughout the wheat crop cycle. Additionally, other protocols not included in the manuals are provided in the present study.
