RootReader2D

RootReader2D software was designed to automatically measure root lengths from digital root images.  Using Java Web Start Technology (Sun Microsystems, Inc.), RootReader2D measures, records, and displays root system lengths while also storing processing information in xml formatted data files.  Shown below is a screenshot of the RootReader2D software with sample output from measured rice root systems.
