Fischer Lab Root Images

Images provided here were taken using the spring 2002 model of the CID inc. CI-600. The minirhizotron we use is a scanner based technology which takes large images (21.59 x 19.56 cm) in 6.99 cm diam. acrylic tubes. For more information please see www.cid-inc.com.

All images were taken at approx 15 cm depth, at an angle of 36 degrees. The thumbnails show the top on the left and bottom on the right, but in reality these images would be angles at 36 degrees from the horizontal. The images the thumbnails are linked to will also be laying sideways with the top of the image to the observer's left.

All images below are taken at 200 dpi approx. 5.5 months after tube installation (early October 2003). The scanner has a resolution up to 1200 dpi.
