Growth of pineapple plantlets during acclimatisation can be monitored through automated image analysis of the canopy

Abstract: Pineapple is an economically important tropical fruit crop, but the lack of adequate planting material limits its productivity. A range of micropropagation protocols has been developed over the years to address this shortfall. Still, the final stage of micropropagation, i.e. acclimatisation, remains a challenge as pineapple plantlets grow very slowly. Several studies have been conducted focusing on this phase and attempting to improve plantlet growth and establishment, which requires tools for the non-destruct… Show more

“…Hence, it is important to search the strategies to improve the acclimatization protocol of pineapple in vitro plantlets [18] [19]. The ultimate stage of acclimatization, which is poorly controlled, can lead to high mortality rates in pineapple [20]. Several strategies have been employed to promote faster and more efficient acclimatization of pineapple plants, including the use of nitrogen-fixing microorganisms [21] and modifications in light supply [22], irrigation and fertilization [23].…”
