A plant selection apparatus has a storage means for storing a plurality of image datasets of plants and associated plant information including at least one of genotype information of the plants, phenotype information of the plants, and pedigree information of the plants. A selection unit preselects a subset of the plants. A display device displays the image datasets of the subset of the plants. A tracking unit generates observation information including information on which of the subset of the plants is observed, and the storage means is configured for storing the observation information. A training unit trains a classifier based on the observation information, the input selection, and the plant information including said at least one of the genotype information, the phenotype information, and the pedigree information.

Efficient plant selection

A system for monitoring plants comprises an input unit, an output unit, and a processor that provides () image data () for a plurality of plants, each image data being associated with an individual plant. It associates () the image data () of each plant with corresponding plant characteristic data (). It selects () a subset of the plants based on the plant characteristic data (). It generates () a plurality of computer graphics objects corresponding to the selected plants. It applies () the image data () of each selected plant in form of a computer graphics texture to the corresponding computer graphics object. It determines () a position of each computer graphics object in a three-dimensional space of a computer graphics scene. It creates () a computer graphics rendering of the scene. It displays () the computer graphics rendering.
