2. Use of Non-Invasive Sensors to Detect Beneficial Effects of Fungicides on Wheat PhysiologyDelay of leaf senescence is a beneficial side effect of fungicides several times studied on cereal crops. Strobilurins have been shown to extend the green leaf area duration (GLAD) for more than one week compared to untreated plants. The use of non-invasive sensors which allow to detect early changes in canopy pigmentation is an excellent method to assess the effect of fungicides on plant senescence. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fungicides on wheat physiology by u... C.A. Berdugo, U. Steiner, E. Oerke, H. Dehne, A. Mahlein |
3. Estimating the Plant Stem Emerging Points (PSEPS) of Sugar Beets at Early Growth StagesSuccessful intra-row mechanical weed control of sugar beet (beta vulgaris) in early growth stages requires precise knowledge about location of crop plants. A computer vision system for locating Plant Stem Emerging Point (PSEP) of sugar beet in early growth stages was developed and tested. The system is based on detection of individual leaves; each leaf location is described by center of mass and petiole location. After leaf detection the true PSEP locations were annotated manually an... T.M. Giselsson, R.N. Jørgensen, H.S. Midtiby |
4. Early Detection of Oil Palm Fungal Disease Infestation Using A Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy TechniqueBasal stem rot (BSR) caused by Ganoderma boninense is known as the most destructive disease of oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia. Ganoderma could potentially reduce the market share of palm oil for Malaysia. Currently Malaysia produces about 50% of the world’s supply of palm oil. Early, accurate, and non-destructive diagnosis of Ganoderma fungal infection is critical for management of this disease. Early disease management of Ganoderma could also prevent great losses in production ... S. Liaghat, S. Mansor, H. Shafri, S. Meon, R. Ehsani, S. Azam, N. Noh |

15. OptiThin - Precision Fruiticulture by Tree-Specific Mechanical ThinningApple cultivars show biennial fluctuations in yields (alternate bearing). The phenomenon is induced by reduced yields in one year due to freeze damage, low pollination rate or other reasons. Consequently, trees develop many flower buds that blossom in the following year. The many flowers lead to a high number of small fruits that won’t be accepted on the market. Endogenous factors (phytohormones and carbohydrate allocation) subsequently establish the biennial cycle. The alternate b... A. Betz, H. Benny, M. Jens, M. Özyurtlu, M. Pflanz, T. Rachow-autrum, A. Schischmanow, M. Scheele, J. Schrenk, L. Schrenk, M. Zude, R. Gebbers |
