Screening Device for Screening Plant Specimens

A screening device for screening at least one plant specimen in a plurality of plant specimens, comprising a detector adapted for acquiring spatially resolved images and at least one selection device adapted for selecting a single plant specimen or a group of plant specimens from the plurality of plant specimens for imaging by the detector, wherein said selection device comprises a deflection device adapted for deflecting electromagnetic waves propagating between the plant specimens and the detector.

A method for screening at least one plant specimen in a plurality of plant specimens, wherein one detector is used, wherein the detector acquires spatially resolved images, wherein further at least one selection device is used, wherein the selection device selects a single plant specimen or a group of plant specimens from the plurality of plant specimens for imaging by the detector, wherein the selection device comprises one deflection device, wherein the deflection device deflects electromagnetic waves propagating between the plant specimens and the detector, and wherein the deflection device is used for said imaging by the detector.
