In shannonlabumn/TubAR: Potato Tuber Trait Image Analysis

TubAR

TubAR (Tuber Analysis in R) provides potato researchers with a simple means of quantitative phenotyping replacing previously used imprecise qualitative scales. Users collect images of sample tubers using a light box, and then use the package to quantify: tuber length, width, roundness, skinning percentage, redness, and lightness. Finally, the data is prepared for export and use in mapping, genomic selection, etc.

Installing the package

Use the install_github function from the devtools package in R to install TubAR. TubAR makes use of the EBImage and Biobase packages, which are available through BiocManager, not CRAN, so you will also have to install those packages before TubAR. {r, include=T, eval=F} install.packages("devtools") install.packages("BiocManager") BiocManager::install("EBImage") BiocManager::install("Biobase") devtools::install_github("shannonlabumn/TubAR") More information on using the package is available in the package vignette.
