USING AUTOMATED HIGH-THROUGHPUT
PHENOTYPING TO QUANTIFY AND VISUALIZE EARLY
STRESS RESPONSES IN PLANTS
The major challenge the global agriculture and plant biology field is nowadays facing in order to sustain the global food security is the identification of new high-yielding genotypes of agricultural crops
that are adapted to our future climate. The use of automated high-throughput phenotyping approaches offers the suitable tool for accelerating crop breeding progress, by linking the selected gene
function with phenotypic traits in relevant environment. Photon Systems Instruments (PSI), Ltd. developed a range of PlantScreenTM, plant phenotyping platforms for the greenhouse, growth room and
field, for high-resolution and high-throughput quantification and visualisation of phenotypical signatures that might be informative of plant development, physiological status, and performance in given
conditions1. These incorporate imaging technologies for RGB and morphometric analysis, thermal analysis, hyperspectral analysis and, critically, in-depth analysis of chlorophyll fluorescence kinetics.
The latter technique, as a rapid tool for monitoring photosynthetic processes, is key to the identification of early onset of stress, and recovery from stress after acclimation2.
Here we used the PlantScreenTM Conveyer System platform to visualise and quantify early plant response to stress by analysing plant structure, growth, and physiological status such as
photosynthetic performance after application of glyphosate, nonselective, broad-spectrum, post-emergence herbicide.

Methods
For quantitative kinetic investigation of glyphosate mode of action in Arabidopsis thaliana PlantScreenTM Conveyer high-throughput phenotyping platform was used for parallel time-course hyperspectral image analysis, morphometric analysis and in-
depth analysis of chlorophyll fluorescence kinetics. Plants were grown in 12h-12h light conditions under cool-white LED illumination of 150 µE in Walk-In Phytoscope Chamber (PSI). 24 days old plant were sprayec with 0.01% Tween20 (control), 0.5% and 2
% glyphosate (v/v) (Rondoup, Monsanto). 16 replicates were used for each variant. Immediately after the spraying the phenotypic analysis in high-throughut PlantScreenTM Conveyer System was initiated. RGB structural imaging, chlorophyll fluorescence
and VNIR hyperspectral imaging was acquired each 60 min for next 72 hours. For automated image processing, data analysis and visualisation PlantScreenTM Software tool package was used.

Fig.1 A) Visible top view RGB images demonstrate that around 25 hours from
glyphosate application (0.5% R, 2% R) yellowing of leaves occured. Later effect
as growth retardation is visible in the acquired images. B) Quantitative
morphometric data clearly demonstrate that growth dynamics of the plants is
impaired about 20 hours after glyphosate application.

Fig.2 Quenching induction experiment measured in PAM-mode was used to determine photosynthetic
performance of the plants following the glyphosate treatment. A) Decline in maximum PSII quantum
yield in dark-adapted state (Fv/Fm) in glyphosate treated plants was observed about 5-6 h after
spraying. B) Fluorescence parametres as Rfd (fluorescence decline ratio used to asses plant vitality)
and NPQ (non-photochemical quenching as process used by plant to protect themselves from high-
light) were affected in glyphosate treated plants already 3 hours after application.
Fig.3 VNIR Hyperspectral analysis was used for kinetic assesment of Normalized
Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) as an important indicator of chlorophyll content in
plants. A) False color image indexing was used to visualise NDVI index spatial
heterogeneity in time course of plant response to glyphosate application. B)
Glyphosate results in rapid reduction of chlorophyll content and NDVI index already
around 13 hours after application.

Rapid characterisation of plant structural and functional dynamics by using high-throughput non-invasive
phenotyping approaches has the power to significantly speed up the process of identification of desired
phenotypic traits and accelerate crop breeding progress by linking the selected gene function with phenotypic
traits in relevant environment.
We have used PlantScreenTM Conveyer high-throughput phenotyping platform to characterise early mode of
action of herbicide glyphosate. To identify early stress response of Arabidopsis thaliana to glyphosate
application parallel time-course hyperspectral image analysis, morphometric analysis and in-depth analysis of
chlorophyll fluorescence kinetics was performed.
Our data clearly demonstrate the power of chlorophyll fluorescence kinetic analysis as it allows to differentiate
effect of glyphosate on photosynthetic performace of plants already 3 hours after herbicide application. By
using VNIR hyperspectral imaging we show that 10 hours after decline of Rfd parameter, chlorophyll content in
herbicide treated plants decreased (NDVI). Results of morphometric analysis show that growth dynamics of
stressed plants in impaired 23 hours after the treatment.
