Abstract: Phenomic features of plant parts are important varietal traits for all crops and form part of the distinctiveness, uniformity and stability (DUS) characterisation protocols. Manual methods for measurement of these traits are expensive, less consistent and time consuming hence machine vision has been used in recent researches. The machine vision systems employed for this purpose consist of acquisition systems (hardware) and image processing and analysis system (software). The area of machine vision has developed during last few decades and there have been many improvements in the employed hardware and software. Major work has been reported on use of seed and fruit images; however, images of other plant parts like leaves, roots, flowers etc. have also been used. A variety of techniques have been reported for analysis of features in order to distinguish among different crop varieties.
