Focused on the sustainability and productivity of听Canadian agriculture now and in coming decades
The Eastern Canadian Plant Phenotyping Platform (ECP3) provides a vast array of infrastructure with advanced phenomics/phenotyping technologies. The platform is designed for flexibility - allowing researchers to听phenotype a broad range of crop plants under diverse growth conditions such as abiotic and biotic stresses, from plate samples to crops, in controlled, semi-controlled, and field environments.
