A scientific instrument or method that records and measures the rate of growth in organisms, especially plants or cells, over time.
From 'auxo-' (growth) and '-graph' (to write or record), derived from Greek 'graphein.' The term was established in plant physiology for instruments tracking developmental changes.
An auxograph is like a growth-tracking machine—it automatically records how fast plants or organisms are growing, creating a visual record over days or weeks. This technology revolutionized plant science by removing human guesswork from growth studies.
