Morphometric and colourimetric tools to dissect morphological diversity: an application in sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.]

Original language description

The genetic diversity of sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] and its wild relatives has been collected and conserved in germplasm collections worldwide and explored employing several tools. The characterization of crops diversity through morphological tools produce useful information. However, the use of conventional morphological descriptions exhibits limitations due to the use of subjective and categorical parameters that affect phenotypic description and diversity estimation. In order to increase the efficiency to discriminate different phenotypes not detected by conventional morphological descriptors, new phenomic approaches were used. Seventy sweet potato accessions collected in the northern coast of Colombia were characterized by forty-nine parameters from conventional sweet potato descriptors and data obtained by RGB imaging and colourimetry. Field descriptions, RGB imaging-colourimetry and both databases integrated were analysed using Gower&apos;s general similarity coefficient for clustering. Estimation of genotype similarity was significantly improved when quantitative data obtained by RGB imaging and colourimetry analysis were included. Variations in traits such as flesh and periderm colour in roots, leaves, vein colour and leaf shape that were not detected by field descriptors, were efficiently discriminated by measuring pixel values from images, estimation of shape descriptors (circularity, solidity, area) and colourimetry data. Expected high correlations were found for field parameters (number of lobes, lobe type, and central lobe shape) and image data (circularity, roundness and solidity). The combination of RGB imaging and colourimetry benefits the quality of morphological characterizations, resulting in a cost-effective process that is able to identify polymorphisms and target traits for diversity estimation and breeding.
