To celebrate the official opening of the NPEC research greenhouse at Wageningen University, a virtual tour was shared. The greenhouse is all about the plant's phenotype, or appearance. Researchers measure how the plant looks and what role the environment plays in it. Bosman Van Zaal realised the greenhouse and climate.
