Arabidopsis

Performances of the analysis software

Arabidopsis, is used very frequently in Screening attempts. Arabidopsis seeds must be differentiated gradually according to resistant (green and largely) and sensitive (yellow and small).Also the germinating rate and the total number of the plants must be determined. Further important parameters are the leave surface area and fluorescence effects. The LemnaTec Scanalyzer is able to analyze with its high-resolution 3CCD camera all these parameters and both qualitatively and quantitatively. The reproducibility of the attempts is over 98 %

Arabidopsis original

The Software automatically detects the plants (see outline) even with amorph background.

 

The color detection makes effects visible (Necrosis, lesions)

The endpoints of the analysis:

  • Size (absolute /relative)
  • Amount of leaves or effects
  • size distribution
  • Leave index
  • color distribution
  • and more
 

Beside this 2-D analysis it is also possible to do a total 3-D plant screening with the Scanalyzer GH.

  • Total area of the leaves as seen in 3 projections
  • Classification of the colors of the leaves
  • Early identification of plants based on appearance of first leaf
  • Identification of active male flowers
  • Maximum height and width of the plant in all 3 dimensions (including invalid marking for plants getting to large)
  • Internodal distances
  • Angle between leaves and vertical line
  • Number of leaves starting at nodes
  • Length of the leaves as seen from the broad side from nodes to tip
