APPLICATION CASE

Multiview Structural Phenotyping

Multiview phenotyping serves to determine plant dimensions and structure. Viewing the plants from multiple angles delivers comprehensive information on the structure and morphology of the plant. Data can be used to determine digital biomass. In time series, the method can serve to determine growth and development. The method not only serves to address the impact of environmental factors on plant development, but it is also applied to analyze the genetic control of growth and development.

Exemplary fields of application

  • Plant development
  • Genotype-phenotype analysis
  • Responses to environment
  • Stress
