Abstract:Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum (Fg), reduces grain yield and quality due to the production of the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol. Manual rating for incidence (percent of infected wheat heads/spikes) and severity (percent of spikelets infected) to estimate FHB resistance is time‐consuming and subject to human error. This study uses a deep learning model, combined with a spectral index, to provide rapid phenotyping of FHB severity. An obje… Show more
