Laboratory of Production Physiology and Plant Ecophysiology

Infrastructure

Scientific and Research Activities of the Laboratory

 

  • Testing the new methods of optical scanning of surface and internal structures of whole plants / crops within the phenotypic platform at SUA in Nitra,
  • testing the e-infrastructure of the phenotypic platform (reliability and accuracy of storing and declassifying measurement data),
  • experimental activity in testing of genetic resources of strategic and non-traditional crops or crops of interest for features and properties suitables for climate change conditions (long-term drought, salinity, high temperature), production of relevant results from data and metadata analyzes,
  • developing international cooperation in the field of automated phenotyping within Horizon 2020 (EPPN2020) running project, focusing on:
    1. fine-tuning the phenotypic methodology,
    2. networking of phenotypic platforms in Europe,
    3. complementing professional capacities in phenotyping and related disciplines,
    4. preparatory activities for launching data and meta-data management and from phenotypic analyzes, creation of e-environment for the preservation and accessibility of data and meta-data for the persons interested in phenotypic results,
    5. making phenotypic platforms accessible through training for academics and industry stakeholders in Europe and the world; cooperation on the introduction of measurement standards of parameters and protocols for all partners in EPPN2020 to unify and harmonize procedures for phenotyping plant features and accelerate screening of genotypes for improved properties for climate change,
  • dissemination of results and promotion of Agrobiotech Research Centre by publishing in foreign indexed and impacted publications, receiving foreign visitors as well as by participating actively in scientific and professional events at home and abroad.
