Phenotyping is the process of observing and measuring the physical and behavioral characteristics of an organism in order to understand its traits and characteristics. This can include traits such as growth rate, yield, disease resistance, and other important agronomic traits in plants, or traits related to health, behavior, and morphology in animals. Phenotyping is an essential tool in plant breeding, genetics, and animal science to identify and select individuals with desired traits for further breeding or research purposes. Advances in technology have enabled more efficient and accurate phenotyping methods, including high-throughput imaging and sensor technologies.
