Maina AW, Oerke EC. Hyperspectral imaging for quantifying Magnaporthe oryzae sporulation on rice genotypes. PLANT METHODS 2024; 20:87. [PMID: 38849955 PMCID: PMC11161989 DOI: 10.1186/s13007-024-01215-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Precise evaluation of fungal conidia production may facilitate studies on resistance mechanisms and plant breeding for disease resistance. In this study, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) was used to quantify the sporulation of Magnaporthe oryzae on the leaves of rice cultivars grown under controlled conditions. Three rice genotypes (CO 39, Nipponbare, IR64) differing in susceptibility to blast were inoculated with M. oryzae isolates Guy 11 and Li1497. Spectral information (450-850 nm, 140 wavebands) of typical leaf blast symptoms was recorded before and after induction of sporulation of the pathogen. RESULTS M. oryzae produced more conidia on the highly susceptible genotype than on the moderately susceptible genotype, whereas the resistant genotype resulted in no sporulation. Changes in reflectance spectra recorded before and after induction of sporulation were significantly higher in genotype CO 39 than in Nipponbare. The spectral angle mapper algorithm for supervised classification allowed for the classification of blast symptom subareas and the quantification of lesion areas with M. oryzae sporulation. The correlation between the area under the difference spectrum (viz. spectral difference without and with sporulation) and the number of conidia per lesion and the number of conidia per lesion area was positive and count-based differences in rice - M. oryzae interaction could be reproduced in the spectral data. CONCLUSIONS HSI provided a precise and objective method of assessing M. oryzae conidia production on infected rice plants, revealing differences that could not be detected visually.

Abstract
The most significant aspect of promoting greenhouse productivity is the timely monitoring of disease spores and applying proactive control measures. This paper introduces a method to classify spores of airborne disease in greenhouse crops by using fingerprint characteristics of diffraction-polarized images and machine learning. Initially, a diffraction-polarization imaging system was established, and the diffraction fingerprint images of disease spores were taken in polarization directions of 0°, 45°, 90° and 135°. Subsequently, the diffraction-polarization images were processed, wherein the fingerprint features of the spore diffraction-polarization images were extracted. Finally, a support vector machine (SVM) classification algorithm was used to classify the disease spores. The study's results indicate that the diffraction-polarization imaging system can capture images of disease spores. Different spores all have their own unique diffraction-polarization fingerprint characteristics. The identification rates of tomato gray mold spores, cucumber downy mold spores and cucumber powdery mildew spores were 96.02%, 94.94% and 96.57%, respectively. The average identification rate of spores was 95.85%. This study can provide a research basis for the identification and classification of disease spores.

Abstract
As rice is one of the world's most important food crops, protecting it from fungal diseases is very important for agricultural production. At present, it is difficult to diagnose rice fungal diseases at an early stage using relevant technologies, and there are a lack of rapid detection methods. This study proposes a microfluidic chip-based method combined with microscopic hyperspectral detection of rice fungal disease spores. First, a microfluidic chip with a dual inlet and three-stage structure was designed to separate and enrich Magnaporthe grisea spores and Ustilaginoidea virens spores in air. Then, the microscopic hyperspectral instrument was used to collect the hyperspectral data of the fungal disease spores in the enrichment area, and the competitive adaptive reweighting algorithm (CARS) was used to screen the characteristic bands of the spectral data collected from the spores of the two fungal diseases. Finally, the support vector machine (SVM) and convolutional neural network (CNN) were used to build the full-band classification model and the CARS filtered characteristic wavelength classification model, respectively. The results showed that the actual enrichment efficiency of the microfluidic chip designed in this study on Magnaporthe grisea spores and Ustilaginoidea virens spores was 82.67% and 80.70%, respectively. In the established model, the CARS-CNN classification model is the best for the classification of Magnaporthe grisea spores and Ustilaginoidea virens spores, and its F1-core index can reach 0.960 and 0.949, respectively. This study can effectively isolate and enrich Magnaporthe grisea spores and Ustilaginoidea virens spores, providing new methods and ideas for early detection of rice fungal disease spores.

Zhang Y, Wang X, Wang Y, Hu L, Wang P. Detection of tomato water stress based on terahertz spectroscopy. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1095434. [PMID: 36794208 PMCID: PMC9922990 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1095434] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
China's tomato cultivation area is nearly 15 thousand km2, and its annual tomato output is about 55 million tons, accounting for 7% of its total vegetable production. Because of the high drought sensitivity of tomatoes, water stress inhibits their nutrient uptake, leading to a decrease in tomato quality and yield. Therefore, the rapid, accurate and non-destructive detection of water status is important for scientifically and effectively managing tomato water and fertilizer, improving the efficiency of water resource utilization, and safeguarding tomato yield and quality. Because of the extreme sensitivity of terahertz spectroscopy to water, we proposed a tomato leaf moisture detection method based on terahertz spectroscopy and made a preliminary exploration of the relationship between tomato water stress and terahertz spectral data. Tomato plants were grown at four levels of water stress. Fresh tomato leaves were sampled at fruit set, moisture content was calculated, and spectral data were collected through a terahertz time-domain spectroscope. The raw spectral data were smoothed using the Savitzky-Golay algorithm to reduce interference and noise. Then the data were divided by the Kennard-Stone algorithm and the sample set was partitioned based on the joint X-Y distance (SPXY) algorithm into a calibration set and a prediction set at a ratio of 3:1. SPXY was found to be the better approach for sample division. On this basis, the stability competitive adaptive re-weighted sampling algorithm was used to extract the feature frequency bands of moisture content, and a multiple linear regression model of leaf moisture content was established under the single dimensions of power, absorbance and transmittance. The absorbance model was the best, with a prediction set correlation coefficient of 0.9145 and a root mean square error of 0.1199. To further improve the modeling accuracy, we used a support vector machine (SVM) to establish a tomato moisture fusion prediction model based on the fusion of three-dimensional terahertz feature frequency bands. As water stress intensified, the power and absorbance spectral values both declined, and both were significantly and negatively correlated with leaf moisture content. The transmittance spectral value increased gradually with the intensification of water stress, showing a significant positive correlation. The SVM-based three-dimensional fusion prediction model showed a prediction set correlation coefficient of 0.9792 and a root mean square error of 0.0531, indicating that it outperformed the three single-dimensional models. Hence, terahertz spectroscopy can be applied to the detection of tomato leaf moisture content and provides a reference for tomato moisture detection.

Abstract
Leaf mildew is a common disease of tomato leaves. Its detection is an important means to reduce yield loss from the disease and improve tomato quality. In this study, a new method was developed for the multi-source detection of tomato leaf mildew by THz hyperspectral imaging through combining internal and external leaf features. First, multi-source information obtained from tomato leaves of different disease grades was extracted by near-infrared hyperspectral imaging and THz time-domain spectroscopy, while the influence of low-frequency noise was removed by the Savitzky Golay (SG) smoothing algorithm. A genetic algorithm (GA) was used to optimize the selection of the characteristic near-infrared hyperspectral band. Principal component analysis (PCA) was employed to optimize the THz characteristic absorption spectra and power spectrum dimensions. Recognition models were developed for different grades of tomato leaf mildew infestation by incorporating near-infrared hyperspectral imaging, THz absorbance, and power spectra using the backpropagation neural network (BPNN), and the models had recognition rates of 95%, 96.67%, and 95%, respectively. Based on the near-infrared hyperspectral features, THz time-domain spectrum features, and classification model, the probability density of the posterior distribution of tomato leaf health parameter variables was recalculated by a Bayesian network model. Finally, a fusion diagnosis and health evaluation model of tomato leaf mildew with hyperspectral fusion THz was established, and the recognition rate of tomato leaf mildew samples reached 97.12%, which improved the recognition accuracy by 0.45% when compared with the single detection method, thereby achieving the accurate detection of facility diseases.

Abstract
The timely monitoring of airborne crop fungal spores is important for maintaining food security. In this study, a method based on microfluidic separation and enrichment and AC impedance characteristics was proposed to detect spores of fungal pathogens that cause diseases on crops. Firstly, a microfluidic chip with tertiary structure was designed for the direct separation and enrichment of Ustilaginoidea virens spores, Magnaporthe grisea spores, and Aspergillus niger spores from the air. Then, the impedance characteristics of fungal spores were measured by impedance analyzer in the enrichment area of a microfluidic chip. The impedance characteristics of fungal spores were analyzed, and four impedance characteristics were extracted: absolute value of impedance (abs), real part of impedance (real), imaginary part of impedance (imag), and impedance phase (phase). Finally, based on the impedance characteristics of extracted fungal spores, K-proximity (KNN), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM) classification models were established to classify the three fungal spores. The results showed that the microfluidic chip designed in this study could well collect the spores of three fungal diseases, and the collection rate was up to 97. The average accuracy of KNN model, RF model, and SVM model for the detection of three disease spores was 93.33, 96.44 and 97.78, respectively. The F1-Score of KNN model, RF model, and SVM model was 90, 94.65, and 96.18, respectively. The accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-Score of the SVM model were all the highest, at 97.78, 96.67, 96.69, and 96.18, respectively. Therefore, the detection method of crop fungal spores based on microfluidic separation, enrichment, and impedance characteristics proposed in this study can be used for the detection of airborne crop fungal spores, providing a basis for the subsequent detection of crop fungal spores.

Abstract
Airborne crop diseases cause great losses to agricultural production and can affect people's physical health. Timely monitoring of the situation of airborne disease spores and effective prevention and control measures are particularly important. In this study, a two-stage separation and enrichment microfluidic chip with arcuate pretreatment channel was designed for the separation and enrichment of crop disease spores, which was combined with micro Raman for Raman fingerprinting of disease conidia and quasi identification. The chip was mainly composed of arc preprocessing and two separated enriched structures, and the designed chip was numerically simulated using COMSOL multiphysics5.5, with the best enrichment effect at W2/W1 = 1.6 and W4/W3 = 1.1. The spectra were preprocessed with standard normal variables (SNVs) to improve the signal-to-noise ratio, which was baseline corrected using an iterative polynomial fitting method to further improve spectral features. Raman spectra were dimensionally reduced using principal component analysis (PCA) and stability competitive adaptive weighting (SCARS), support vector machine (SVM) and back-propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) were employed to identify fungal spore species, and the best discrimination effect was achieved using the SCARS-SVM model with 94.31% discrimination accuracy. Thus, the microfluidic-chip- and micro-Raman-based methods for spore capture and identification of crop diseases have the potential to be precise, convenient, and low-cost methods for fungal spore detection.

Abstract
To explore the use of information technology in detecting crop diseases, a method based on hyperspectra-terahertz for detecting cucumber powdery mildew is proposed. Specifically, a method of effective hyperspectrum establishment, a method of spectral preprocessing, a method of selecting the feature wavelength, and a method of establishing discriminant models are studied. Firstly, the effective spectral information under visible light and near infrared is preprocessed by Savitzky-Golay (SG) smoothing, discrete wavelet transform, and move sliding window, which determine the optimal preprocessing method to be wavelet transform. Then stepwise discriminant analysis is used to select the feature wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared bands, forming the feature space. According to the features, a linear discriminant model is established for the wave bands, and the average recognition rate of cucumber powdery mildew is 93% in the whole wave band. The preprocessing method of terahertz data, the screening method of terahertz effective spectrum, the selection method of feature wavelength and the establishment method of classification model are studied. Python 3.8 is used to preprocess the terahertz raw data and establish the terahertz effective spectral data set for subsequent processing. Through iterative variable subset optimization - iterative retaining informative variables (IVSO-IRIV), the terahertz effective spectrum is screened twice to form the terahertz feature space. After that, the optimal regularization parameter and regularization solution methods are selected, and a sparse representation classification model is established. The accuracy of cucumber powdery mildew identification under the terahertz scale is 87.78%. The extraction and analysis methods of terahertz and hyperspectral feature images are studied, and more details of lesion samples are restored. Hence, the use of hyperspectral and terahertz technology can realize the detection of cucumber powdery mildew, which provides a basis for research on the hyperspectral and terahertz technology in detection of crop diseases.
