EMPHASIS – European Multi-environment Plant pHenotyping And Simulation InfraStructure
Archive ouverte
Edité par CCSD -
The EMPHASIS proposal aim to establish a European Infrastructure within the ESFRI framework, based on national phenotyping infrastructure (Belgium, France, Germany and UK). The partnership will be extended to other European member states.EMPHASIS will develop and provide access to infrastructures addressing multi-scale phenotyping for analysing genotype performance under diverse environmental conditions and quantify the diversity of traits contributing to performance in diverse environmental scenario (i.e. plant architecture, major physiological functions and output, yield components and quality).EMPHASIS will address the technological and organizational limits. EMPHASIS will:• develop an integrated pan-European network of instrumented phenotyping platforms using current and future agro-climatic scenarios.• link data acquisition to a European-level data management system and to state-of-the art crop models to simulate plants and crops in current and future climates.• develop, evaluate and disseminate novel technologies, thereby providing new opportunities for research involved in phenotyping and precision agriculture• make these infrastructures and concepts accessible to European plant science community in academia and industryEMPHASIS infrastructures will include• platforms in (semi-)controlled conditions for high resolution and throughput phenotyping• Intensive field experimental sites• a coordinated network of field experiments with phenotyping infrastructure• Modelling platforms for testing existing or virtual combinations of alleles.
