Fighting insect decline – phenotyping for minimizing pesticide impact
Insect decline is a massive problem in Europe and many other parts of the world. Loss is partly attributed to pesticide […]
Documentation: digital images keep hold of the current state of the plants while a quoted visual impression captured by an operator is […]
Fruit phenotyping with LemnaTec multi-camera imaging and image processing. In tobacco plants, fruit capsule color indicates the maturity of the contained seeds. With progressing maturity, color changes from […]
3 driving forces why seeds and seed testing need to progress – and what you need for it
Climatechange is progressing and makes weather more stressful for plants.
Global population growth […]
Seed quality is of highest importance, and germination is the most prominent key factor in seed quality. Frequently, seeds are placed on moist paper to assess germination, and many seed […]
A common practice in laboratory tests, e.g. when studying functions of mutations, is growing seedlings on solid media in petri dishes. Such growth assays serve to compare phenotypic properties of […]
A LemnaTec Scanalyzer at work:
Environmental stresses frequently occur in combination, particularly the combination of high temperatures and low water availability is common during hot weather. Such stresses negatively affect plant […]
LemnaTec proudly has finished the installation of a large-scale Growscreen Rhizo system inside the Plant Cultivation Hall of IPK Gatersleben. LemnaTec delivered this unique root- and shoot- phenotyping […]
Digital phenotyping and digital seed testing essentially have two main parts: image acquisition and feature extraction from the image. The second part is challenging as soon as the background or […]
LemnaTec’s Chief Scientist Dr. Marcus Jansen has co-authored a paper on phenotyping studies to evaluate potential links between Glutathione, growth, and sensitivity to low water availability in Arabidopsis. Before joining […]
