StatFaRmer

StatFaRmer analyzes time series of plant phenotypic parameters through automated data preparation and customizable ANOVA tests for digital phenotyping studies.

Key Features:

• Automated Data Preparation: Handles measurements with variation in timestamps between plants and the presence of outliers common in digital phenotyping.
• Customizable ANOVA Tests: Includes diagnostics and significance estimation for effects between user-defined groups.
• Spreadsheet Data Input: Uses XLSX and CSV files for maximum versatility across phenotypic methods and platforms.
• Reproducible Analysis: Results from each stage can be downloaded to reproduce analyses.

Scientific Applications:

• Genotype Comparison: Determines differences in traits between plants with different genotypes.
• Condition Comparison: Determines differences in traits between plants under different conditions.
• Large-Scale Phenotyping: Tested reliably for large datasets across various experimental designs with bread wheat (Triticum aestivum), durum wheat (Triticum durum), triticale (x Triticosecale), sugar beet (Beta vulgaris), cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), corn (Zea mays), sunflower (Helianthus annuus), and soybean (Glycine max).

Methodology:

StatFaRmer performs automated data preparation followed by customizable ANOVA tests with diagnostics and significance estimation.
