Growth of a monocot species, E. tef (teff), in the Microphenotron. Two teff seed (which had been surface-sterilised and kept at 4° for 48 h) were sown on the surface of each gel-filled well of the Phytostrips and cultured under the same conditions as used for Arabidopsis. a Image showing a whole plate of teff seedlings taken 5 days after sowing. b Robotically captured image showing 8 d-old teff seedlings growing in a Phytostrip
