Digital whole-community phenotyping: tracking morphological and physiological responses of plant communities to environmental changes in the field.

The mean values of the non-invasively measured community-wide parameters obtained by DWCP seem to give a valid representation of the actual plant community as indicated by the highly significant positive relationship between the weighted plant biomass removed from sods and the digital biomass extracted from scans (quadratic polynomial regression, p < 2.2e-16, adjusted R 2 = 0.59, see Additional Figure 3 ), supporting results from scans of plant individuals ( Laxman et al., 2018 ).
