Abstract
We live in an era where omic approaches are essential to decode scientific hypotheses. Indeed, technological advances have accelerated science, resulting in a plethora of insights. During the past decade, the plant science community has profited from using large and high-throughput phenotypic platforms to characterize multiple traits across time and environmental conditions, enabling the in-depth examination of genotype-to-phenotype interactions. However, such forward-moving experimental approaches require extensive data analysis, which can be very challenging. Are we ready to tackle this vast amount of phenomic data? Do we have adequate statistical literacy to properly interpret our results? And do we have standardized methods ensuring the accessibility, reproducibility, and transparency of our data?
