APPL Hyperspectral_Imaging_Dataset_for_Heritability_Analysis_in_Populus_trichocarpa

Abstract

This dataset contains hyperspectral imaging data collected at the Advanced Plant Phenotyping Laboratory (APPL) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Natural variants of Populus trichocarpa were imaged using a high-throughput hyperspectral phenotyping pipeline to quantify spectral reflectance traits for downstream quantitative genetics analyses. The dataset includes hyperspectral image files and derived reflectance data products suitable for extracting spectral features across the measured wavelength range (e.g., VNIR and/or SWIR, depending on instrument configuration), along with associated sample metadata (e.g., genotype identifiers, experimental design factors, and imaging run identifiers). These data were generated to support analyses of broad-sense heritability of hyperspectral traits and their relationships with biochemical phenotypes (including lignin traits from Py-MBMS).
