MIC-100, a new system for high-throughput phenotyping of instantaneous leaf photosynthetic rate in the field

Photosynthesis occurs mainly in plant leaves and is a fundamental process in the global carbon cycle and in crop production. The exploitation of natural genetic variation in leaf photosynthetic capacity is a promising strategy to meet the increasing demand for crops. The present study reports the newly developed photosynthesis measurement system 'MIC-100,' with a higher throughput for measuring instantaneous photosynthetic rate in the field. MIC-100 is established based on the closed system and directly detects the CO2 absorption in the leaf chamber. The reproducibility, accuracy, and measurement throughput of MIC-100 were tested using soybean (Glycine max L. (Merr.)) and rice (Oryza sativa L.) grown under field conditions. In most cases, the coefficient of variance (CV) for repeated-measurements of the same leaf was less than 0.1. The photosynthetic rates measured with the MIC-100 model showed a significant correlation (R2 = 0.93-0.95) with rates measured by a widely used gas-exchange system. The measurement throughput of the MIC-100 is significantly greater than that of conventional open gas-exchange systems under field conditions. Although MIC-100 solely detects the instantaneous photosynthetic rate under a given environment, this study demonstrated that the MIC-100 enables the rough evaluation of leaf photosynthesis within the large-scale plant populations grown in the field.
