Abstract:
Background:Monitoring the timing of seedling emergence and early development via high-throughput phenotyping with computer vision is a challenging topic of high interest in plant science. While most studies focus on the measurements of leaf area index or detection of specific events such as emergence, little attention has been put on the identification of kinetics of events of early seedling development on a seed to seed basis. Result:Imaging systems screened the whole seedling growth process from the top view. Precise annotation of emergence out of the soil, cotyledon opening, and appearance of first leaf was conducted. This annotated data set served to train deep neural networks. Various strategies to incorporate in neural networks, the prior knowledge of the order of the developmental stages were investigated. Best results were obtained with a deep neural network followed with a long short term memory cell, which achieves more than 90% accuracy of correct detection. Conclusion:This work provides a full pipeline of image processing and machine learning to classify three stages of plant growth plus soil on the different accessions of two species of red clover and alfalfa but which could easily be extended to other crops and other stages of development.
