As an example shown in this study (http://dx.doi.org/10.1104/pp.113.233932), we performed a phenotyping experiment on 33 Fernandez maize (Zea mays)
plants. This energy maize cultivar was cultivated by the KWS Company. Plant images were captured using a LemnaTec 3D Scanalyzer (LemnaTec, GmbH, Wuerselen, Germany) at the Leibniz Institute of
Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK Gatersleben, Germany). Seventy-eight images were taken of every plant, of which 26 images were captured using three kinds of cameras. For each camera
system, images were taken from both top view (one image) and side view (25 images). The result images were stored in PNG format (this is the JPEG compressed version of this data set). The three
cameras used in the automated system are: (i) visible-light camera (Basler Pilot piA2400-17gc with resolution of 2454 x 2056 px), (ii) fluorescence camera (Basler Scout scA1400-17gc with resolution
of 1390 x 1038 px) and (iii) near-infrared camera (Nir 300 with resolution of 320 x 256 px). Images were acquired daily for nine weeks. We obtained ~34000 images in total.
