Figure Lengend Snippet: Scheme of the protocol used for non-invasive phenotyping of barley ( Hordeum vulgare ) seedlings growing under water stress conditions. (A) Barley seeds were germinated on filter paper and 50 seedlings of similar radicle size were transplanted into soil in standardized PlantScreen™ measuring trays. (B) The trays were transferred to an XYZ PlantScreen™ chamber with a conveyor system for automatic image acquisition. (C) The canopy height was analyzed using an in-house software routine implemented in MatLab R2015, and the data were evaluated by multivariate statistical analyses using Phyton version 3.6.5 and R version 3.5.1.
