Abstract
This chapter presents the application of Plantarray, a high-throughput platform commercially available for noninvasive monitoring of plant functional physiology phenotyping (FPP). The platform continuously measures water flux in the soil-plant-atmosphere for each plant in dynamic environments. To better interpret the massive phenotypic data acquired with FPP, several quantitative analysis methods were demonstrated for various types of data. Simple mathematical models were utilized to fit characteristic parameters of plant transpiration response to drought stress. Additionally, ecophysiological models were employed to quantify the sensitivity of transpiration to radiation and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) as component traits and predict more complex higher-order traits. The established protocols provide a tangible tool for integrating FPP and model analysis to address complex traits.
