Images of wheat grains acquired by 3D tomography at various stages of the early development of the grain. This data set serves as companion for the article "Use of X-ray micro computed tomography imaging to analyze the morphology of wheat grain through its development" submitted to the "Plant Methods" journal. Grain samples A total of 41grains obtained at height different stages was imaged. The files correspond to the collections of grains at each stage: 060 degree-days: 5 grains 080 degree-days: 5 grains 100 degree-days: 5 grains 120 degree-days: 5 grains 180 degree-days: 6 grains 210 degree-days: 5 grains 270 degree-days: 5 grains 310 degree-days: 5 grains A more detailed description is provided in the file "wheatGrainTomoDataset.pdf". Image format All images are in TIFF format. Two kinds of images are provided: the volumes of the whole grains after conversion tu 256 gray levels, and the results of the segmentation of the grains as described in the manuscript.
