The Wolfson Centre for Disease Phenomics A state-of-the-art facility for plant disease phenomics.
Phenomic platforms
- Combinations of immune priming agents protect plants against disease.
- Synthetic microbial communities to protect hydroponic crops
- Epigenetic modification and crop protection

Our focus is on plant responses to disease.
The facility has high-throughput chlorophyll fluorescence (PAM) and multispectral imaging systems to image plant-pathogen interactions. Both are housed in controlled environments, providing precise control over irradiance, temperature and humidity. The facility can handle GM plants and pathogens (and controlled diseases).
