About SMARTtray®
SMARTtray® is an innovative, non-destructive, high-throughput technology for the cultivation, tissue sampling, DNA extraction and selection of various plant species.
It utilizes SMART breeding (Selection with Markers and Advanced Reproductive Technologies), which has become a reliable tool in modern breeding programs to develop new varieties.
The key element of SMARTtray® is to grow plants under fully controlled conditions and sample root tissue from all progenies in a 96-well format, eliminating the need for additional manipulation of individual plants.
