HYPOTrace

Be the first to review HYPOTrace

An automated tool for making high-resolution measurements of Arabidopsis hypocotyls may find many uses in plant biology research and education. HYPOTrace is able to measure light-induced hypocotyl inhibition, apical hook opening, phototropism, and nutation with a high degree of automation and resolution. HYPOTrace is expected to benefit seedling development research, particularly in the photomorphogenesis field, by replacing many tedious, error-prone manual measurements with a precise, largely automated computational tool.
