Infrastructure categories

Plant phenotyping installations enable the non-destructive characterization of plant traits, providing valuable insights into plant performance and behavior. These research activities occur under diverse conditions across various regions of Europe.

Controlled Conditions

  • Greenhouses and growth chambers
  • Monitoring of (semi-)controlled environmental conditions
  • Often automated, e.g., plant to sensor or sensor to plant
  • Throughput typically between 100-1000s plants

Intensive Field

  • Fully equipped field trials
  • Detailed environmental monitoring
  • High-quality/throughput phenotyping measurements
  • Semi-controlled intensive field sites: alter environmental conditions

Lean Field & Mobile

  • Field trials with environmental monitoring
  • Phenotyping equipment for yield and moisture content
  • Potentially ground based or airborne sensing systems
  • Usually in networks of fields

Data & Computational Services

  • Usually in networks of fields
  • FAIR Information systems plant phenotyping data
  • Access to data
  • Support for local installation data management
  • Integration of information system into pan-European system
  • Virtual platforms
  • Integrated or interfacing with phenotyping data
  • Different types of models, e.g., Crop Models, FSPM
