Motivation: 
Just as marker technology led to an explosion of genetic data and analyses, high throughput phenomics (HTP) has led to large amounts of data. HTP raises issues of design, the development of traits and statistical analysis, much the same as any experiment, but with the added complication of high numbers of repeated measurements and hence “big data” issues. Not only can data be observed in time but also spatially and over wavelengths for spectral data. The development of appropriate statistical methods is paramount for such data and this session aims to have a snapshot of new and exciting developments in this area.
