What Researchers Use PlantArray For
| Research question | How PlantArray helps |
|---|---|
| Drought tolerance | Hold each plant at a defined drought stage and compare transpiration and recovery between genotypes |
| Water-use efficiency | Measure water used and biomass gained per plant, every day of the experiment |
| Salinity | Apply salt treatments and gradients with MultiFerti and follow growth and transpiration |
| Flooding and low oxygen | Run controlled flood events with the Flood Control Kit |
| Nutrients and biostimulants | Compare fertigation treatments in a single experiment |
| Breeding and pre-breeding | Screen many genotypes for physiological traits that field trials take seasons to show |

Frequently Asked Questions
Does JKG supply Plant-DiTech PlantArray in India?
Yes. JKG BioScience supplies Plant-DiTech PlantArray systems and add-ons in India, with layout planning, installation, user training and support.
What does PlantArray measure?
Each plant sits on its own load-cell lysimeter, so PlantArray continuously measures whole-plant weight and calculates transpiration, water-use efficiency, biomass gain, stomatal conductance and related traits for every plant, while controlling irrigation plant by plant.
Where can PlantArray be installed?
In greenhouses, growth rooms and controlled-environment chambers. Tell us the space, pot size and number of plants and we will plan the layout.
What is SPAC-Analytics?
Plant-DiTech’s cloud software for PlantArray. It tracks soil, plant and atmosphere data, calculates physiological traits and runs real-time statistics such as ANOVA and t-tests.
Which add-ons are available?
The MultiFerti fertigation add-on for several nutrient or salinity treatments, the Sensors add-on for extra soil and atmosphere measurements, and the Flood Control Kit for controlled flooding experiments.
What does a PlantArray system cost?
Cost depends on the number of units, add-ons and software. Send us your experimental design and we will quote.
