ch7tps: TPS Data for the Vectorized Root System of a Young Oak Tree

Description

This data set obtained with Data Analysis of Root Tracings gives the correspondence between the observation numbers, dates and colour codes used to perform a root system architecture analysis of a young oak tree (Quercus robur L.) growing in a vertical rhizobox using DART.

Usage

ch7tps

format

A data frame containing the following columns:

Num: the identification number of each observation date.Date: the root system age at each observation date (the unit of time is defined by the experimenter). In ch7tps, data are expressed in days.CoulR: the red component of the colour chosen for the vectorization of the root system at each observation date.CoulG: the green component of the colour chosen for the vectorization of the root system at each observation date.CoulB: the blue component of the colour chosen for the vectorization of the root system at each observation date.
