RESOURCES - Austrian Plant Phenotyping Network
by Jez,Jakub Sept. 4, 2024

Sept. 4, 2024

Dear all, We just launched the first version of the APPN phenotyping resources list, highlighting Austrian plant phenotyping related research infrastructures, instruments, hand-held devices and (software) tools. The goal is to establish a one-stop-shop for plant phenotyping, allowing efficient expertise/RI search and to facilitate and streamline collaborations within and beyond the APPN. In case any instrument is missing and you want this instrument to be added, please fill the form attached and sent it back to us. Happy scrolling: https://appn.at/resources/ Best regards, Jakub.

Dear all, we had to exclude some plant samples from our running Norway spruce drought stress screen in PHENOPlant (see attachment). Time is flying; if you are looking for a small X-Mas tree for your flat, balcony or garden you can pick up a tree next Monday 22nd July at 11am in PHENOPlant (VBC6 building, 1st floor, 176). First-come-first-surf. In case of any questions please contact @Helfenbein,Paula<mailto:paula.helfenbein@vbcf.ac.at>. Merry X-Mas, yours PlantS.

Change in rules for virus experiments
by Helfenbein,Paula Feb. 1, 2024

Feb. 1, 2024

Dear all, I would like to inform you that there are some changes regarding the rules for virus experiments. We have closed the virus chamber #23 at the MPL because the virus experiments have largely come to an end in recent months. Chamber #23 is now constantly booked for biotic stress experiments. If you wish to do any experiments with viruses, please approach us via plants(a)vbcf.ac.at<mailto:plants@vbcf.ac.at> and we will arrange space for you. If you have any questions, please always feel free to reach out to us.

Cooling system error phytotron #21
by Jez,Jakub Aug. 23, 2023

Aug. 23, 2023

Dear all, the colling system of phytotron #21 broke yesterday evening casuing a temperature increase up to 25,4C. Hopefully, this hardware issue can be fixed today afternoon. For the meantime, and for the case this issue can’t be fixed in reasonable time, your plants will be moved down the corridor to phytotron #18, which will be set to identical environmental conditions as #21. We will keep you posted. Best, Jakub.
