Hi,

I am looking for a R library that would allow the analysis of images  
of plates with colonies arranged on a regular grid on it, for  
instance 32 rows X 48 columns or other densities. These are typically  
used for large scale screen in yeast genetics and genomics where  
different colonies are plated using a pin tool and growth rate are  
estimated based on colony size or intensity from a .jpg image of the  
plate. Has anyone seen this developed for R/Bioconductor? The  
functions would serve to locate a grid on the plate and then extract  
colony intensities or area, in an approach similar to the analysis of  
microscopy screen available through EBIimage.

Thanks for letting me know,

Christian
