Long-term field monitoring of leaf pigment content is informative for understanding plant responses to environments distinct from regulated chambers, but is impractical by conventional destructive measurements. We developed PlantServation, a method incorporating robust image-acquisition hardware and deep learning-based software to analyze field images, where the plant shape, color, and background vary over months. We estimated the anthocyanin contents of small individuals of four Arabidopsis species using color information and verified the results experimentally. We obtained >4 million plant images over three field seasons to study anthocyanin fluctuations. We found significant effects of past radiation, coldness, and precipitation on the anthocyanin content in the field. The synthetic allopolyploid A. kamchatica recapitulated the fluctuations of natural polyploids by integrating diploid responses. The data support a long-standing hypothesis stating that allopolyploids can inherit and combine the traits of progenitors. PlantServation pipeline facilitates the study of plant responses to complex environments termed "in natura."
