DigiPlant: Digitalizing plant physiological functioning
Abstract
Transition from high input-dependent green-revolution towards a future resource efficient agronomy requires technologies facilitating informed management decisions that optimally relay on in vivo plant diagnostics. There are high expectations that novel digitalization and imaging sensors provide the tools required to design sustainable management and breeding (phenotyping) solutions. Most imaging application in plant sciences has targeted low-level traits (e.g. green biomass) via simple spectral indices. However, there are important reasons to expect that higher-level feature detection of plant physiological functioning would provide substantial added value for utilization of sensor signals in plant, environmental and agronomic sciences. The aim of this project is to develop a physiological plant trait digitalization pipeline that harmonizes throughput of spectral imaging and physiological reference data acquisition with dataset structure requirements for the development of feature detection and prediction models. Application of the novel approach is demonstrated for grapevine stress detection in response to water deficit which is relevant for sustainable irrigation strategies. The expected outcome of the project will strongly facilitate advanced use of digital data in plant sciences and applications.
