Inhalt
- PALMA is an easy to use platform-independent console program
- PALMA1 identifies the positions of both cotyledon and leaf tips of Arabidopsis seedlings
- PALMA2 correctly determines periods and phase shifts in simulated time series
- Comparison with established leaf movement analysis programs
- PALMA correctly identified a short period mutant in wet-lab experiments
- Reduced iron availability leads to shortened leaf movement periods in Arabidopsis
- Conclusions
