Viscon Plant Technology

Streamline Your Breeding Process with Viscon's PhytoFlow transplanter

Viscon’s advanced PhytoFlow Transplanter transforms early-stage plantlet handling by automating the selection and transplantation process. Designed for high-throughput plant production, this automated marker-guided transplanter for genotype and phenotype selection works directly from agar-based media or trays into soilless media—minimizing manual handling and contamination risks.

Precision Automation for Genotype and Phenotype-Based Plant Selection

The PhytoFlow transplanter integrates seamlessly with Viscon’s multi-cell embryo trays, enabling smooth and sterile transfer of individual plantlets. Combined with vision-based grading and automated marker-based selection, it ensures that only the best-performing plantlets—based on genotype and/or phenotype—advance in your pipeline. This results in greater consistency, reduced labor, and scalable, reliable outcomes. 

A key advantage of Viscon’s system is the ability to build a comprehensive dataset across your entire plant population. Each plantlet is uniquely identified and tracked, with genotypic and phenotypic data captured at every step. 

This enables you to analyze how specific traits influence performance across different plant types, helping you identify which combinations produce the highest-quality plantlets. The result? A smarter, data-driven propagation process that continuously improves over time.

Key Benefits of Our Robotic Micro-Transplanter

Automated Marker-Based Transplantation Selects and transplants plantlets based on genotype or phenotype data.

High-Precision Grading – Vision system with RGB camera ensures only top-performing plantlets are selected.

Seamless Tray Integration – Compatible with standardized source and destination trays for smooth automation.

Data Integration & Insight-Driven Optimization barcode scanning, order tracking, and customizable tray mapping. 

Scalable for Breeding Labs – Designed for high-throughput environments with minimal manual handling. 

Our Expertise in Micro-Transplanting & Phenotyping Automation

At Viscon, we specialize in automating the most delicate and critical stages of plant propagation. Our marker-guided transplanting systems are engineered to handle fragile, early-stage plantlets grown in tissue culture media—such as somatic embryos, callus, or meristem cultures—with unmatched precision.

Using advanced vision systems and AI-driven grading, our marker-guided transplanting technology evaluates key plant traits like height, stem thickness, leaf count, and root development. This enables real-time decisions on which plants to transplant, discard, or redirect—ensuring only the strongest selections move forward in the breeding pipeline.

Our solutions are designed for seamless integration with upstream processes like embryo picking and media dispensing, forming a closed-loop system that supports: 

  • Genotype- and phenotype-based selection
  • High-throughput transplanting 
  • Full traceability and data logging 
  • Compatible with custom trays & lab automation workflows 

Whether you’re scaling up R&D or commercial production, Viscon’s transplanting expertise empowers breeders to improve crop performance, reduce labor intensity, and accelerate innovation with confidence.
