Abstract
Integrating imaging sensors and artificial intelligence (AI) have contributed to detecting plant stress symptoms, yet data analysis remains a key challenge. Data challenges include standardized data collection, analysis protocols, selection of imaging sensors and AI algorithms, and finally, data sharing. Here, we present a systematic literature review (SLR) scrutinizing plant imaging and AI for identifying stress responses. We performed a scoping review using specific keywords, namely abiotic and biotic stress, machine learning, plant imaging and deep learning. Next, we used programmable bots to retrieve relevant papers published since 2006. In total, 2,704 papers from 4 databases (Springer, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Web of Science) were found, accomplished by using a second layer of keywords (e.g., hyperspectral imaging and supervised learning). To bypass the limitations of search engines, we selected OneSearch to unify keywords. We carefully reviewed 262 studies, summarizing key trends in AI algorithms and imaging sensors. We demonstrated that the increased availability of open-source imaging repositories such as PlantVillage or Kaggle has strongly contributed to a widespread shift to deep learning, requiring large datasets to train in stress symptom interpretation. Our review presents current trends in AI-applied algorithms to develop effective methods for plant stress detection using image-based phenotyping. For example, regression algorithms have seen substantial use since 2021. Ultimately, we offer an overview of the course ahead for AI and imaging technologies to predict stress responses. Altogether, this SLR highlights the potential of AI imaging in both biotic and abiotic stress detection to overcome challenges in plant data analysis.
期刊介绍:
Plant Phenomics is an Open Access journal published in affiliation with the State Key Laboratory of Crop Genetics & Germplasm Enhancement, Nanjing Agricultural University (NAU) and published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). Like all partners participating in the Science Partner Journal program, Plant Phenomics is editorially independent from the Science family of journals.
The mission of Plant Phenomics is to publish novel research that will advance all aspects of plant phenotyping from the cell to the plant population levels using innovative combinations of sensor systems and data analytics. Plant Phenomics aims also to connect phenomics to other science domains, such as genomics, genetics, physiology, molecular biology, bioinformatics, statistics, mathematics, and computer sciences. Plant Phenomics should thus contribute to advance plant sciences and agriculture/forestry/horticulture by addressing key scientific challenges in the area of plant phenomics.
The scope of the journal covers the latest technologies in plant phenotyping for data acquisition, data management, data interpretation, modeling, and their practical applications for crop cultivation, plant breeding, forestry, horticulture, ecology, and other plant-related domains.
