About
Morten Lillemo is a leading figure in plant breeding and phenomics, with a research focus on integrating robotics and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) into high-throughput field phenotyping. His most-cited work, "Exploring Robots and UAVs as Phenotyping Tools in Plant Breeding" (2017, 53 citations), demonstrates his pioneering contributions to non-destructive, cost-efficient plant trait assessment. By combining VIS/NIR multispectral imaging from UAVs and ground-based robots with traditional manual measurements, Lillemo has advanced the ability to survey large plant populations rapidly and accurately. This work bridges the gap between sensor technology and practical breeding programs, enabling more precise selection for traits like disease resistance and yield. His research has significant implications for accelerating crop improvement in the face of climate change and food security challenges. Lillemo’s innovative approach to phenotyping has established him as a key contributor to the digital transformation of plant breeding, with his methods increasingly adopted by researchers worldwide.
