"Bij digitaal fenotyperen worden de uiterlijke kenmerken van het gewas – het fenotype – beoordeeld door de computer aan de hand van foto’s. Zo weten we snel en eenduidig welke meloen de gewenste eigenschap heeft.
De grootste uitdaging? Zorgen dat de computer elke foto op dezelfde manier beoordeelt."
