title: Data from: 3D sorghum reconstructions from depth images identify QTL regulating shoot architecture

description: Dissecting the genetic basis of complex traits is aided by frequent and
 nondestructive measurements. Advances in range imaging technologies enable
 the rapid acquisition of three-dimensional (3D) data from an imaged scene.
 A depth camera was used to acquire images of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), an
 important grain, forage, and bioenergy crop, at multiple developmental
 time points from a greenhouse-grown recombinant inbred line population. A
 semiautomated software pipeline was developed and used to generate
 segmented, 3D plant reconstructions from the images. Automated
 measurements made from 3D plant reconstructions identified quantitative
 trait loci for standard measures of shoot architecture, such as shoot
 height, leaf angle, and leaf length, and for novel composite traits, such
 as shoot compactness. The phenotypic variability associated with some of
 the quantitative trait loci displayed differences in temporal prevalence;
 for example, alleles closely linked with the sorghum Dwarf3 gene, an auxin
 transporter and pleiotropic regulator of both leaf inclination angle and
 shoot height, influence leaf angle prior to an effect on shoot height.
 Furthermore, variability in composite phenotypes that measure overall
 shoot architecture, such as shoot compactness, is regulated by loci
 underlying component phenotypes like leaf angle. As such, depth imaging is
 an economical and rapid method to acquire shoot architecture phenotypes in
 agriculturally important plants like sorghum to study the genetic basis of
 complex traits.
