Understanding Diagnostics

Precision farming requires the development of technologies that can work directly in the field providing information about plant health. There are a variety of invasive and non-invasive techniques to detect crops’ stresses.

Phenotypic Changes

Unhealthy crops may exhibit visible changes that represent a detection target to indicate plant health status.

These visible changes can be detected using various imaging techniques.

DNA Techniques & Enzyme Immunoassays

Diagnostic methods include both traditional and widely used techniques such polymerase chain reaction (PCR), ELISA and biosensors

Metabolomics

There is now clear evidence that an early response of plants to stresses involves metabolic changes. The concept of metabolite profiling has been around for several decades.
