VIB agro-incubator houses a large-scale high throughput Phenotyping. This service would be ideal for researchers and agricultural companies looking to analyse a vast number of plants simultaneously (up to 10,000 plants) depending on the crop and duration of the experiment. Our facility can offer: 

1. Root Seedling Phenotyping: Focusing on the early stages of plant development, this service can help understand root growth patterns, which are crucial for plant health and yield;
2. Shoot Phenotyping: This service would cater to the analysis of above-ground parts of plants, up to 1.8 meters in height. It can be beneficial for studying plant growth, disease resistance, and overall health in a population screening. The phenotyping can be combined with abiotic stress (such as drought) and/or spraying biostimulants, herbicides, and fertilizers;
3. Data Analysis and Reporting: Providing detailed analysis and comprehensive reports based on the phenotyping data can add significant value for users, helping them make informed decisions.
