The PHENOPSIS platform is an automatic irrigation and image-taking system located in a 1.5 x 5 m growth chamber. It is a prototype built by Optimalog (France) in 2003. Since 2007, LEPSE has had 3 PHENOPSIS machines. Thanks to a removable arm (x,y,z) it can weigh, irrigate precisely to a target weight defined by the experimenter and take images (visible, infrared, fluorescence) on more than 500 small plants/PHENOSPIS, such as the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Today, new species can be accommodated under strictly controlled environmental conditions.

Phenopsis is an automatic watering and imaging robot installed in three growth chambers, each with 500 plants. Initially developed for the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, it has recently been improved to accommodate other species with different aerial architecture, such as rape, tomato or Brachypodium. It can take RGB (top and/or side view), infrared and fluorescent images. It has been used for multi-trait QTL analyses involving leaf expansion, cell division and leaf formation with contrasting soil water status. It has also been used to test large sets of accessions of contrasting origin and targeted transgenic plants and to link phenotypes to transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics.
