Predictive analysis of effects of water stress on strawberry seedlings using fluorescent image channel components

Rev Sci Instrum. 2023 Dec 1;94(12):125108. doi: 10.1063/5.0166641.

Abstract

To investigate the effect of water stress on strawberry seedlings, a chlorophyll-fluorescence-image-acquisition system was developed. Strawberry seedlings of uniform growth were selected for grouped water-stress incubation experiments; the collected chlorophyll-fluorescence images of leaves were converted to red-green-blue (RGB), hue-saturation-value (HSV), and hue-saturation-intensity (HSI) color spaces and analyzed for water and chlorophyll contents measured at the same time for 14 consecutive days. The results indicate that the analysis and prediction of plant stress conditions can be effectively conducted using the channel components of the color-space model and the channel component ratios, which provide a reference for promoting agricultural development.
