Kinetic models of peroxidase activity in potato leaves infected with late blight based on hyperspectral data

Abstract

Potato late blight, which is caused by Phytophthorainfestans (Mont.) de Bary, is a worldwide devastating disease for potato. It decreased yields of potato and caused unpredictable losses all over the world. Various simple statistical methods and forecasting models have been developed to predict and manage potato late blight. Meanwhile, there is a rising need to develop prediction models reflecting peroxidase (POD) activity, which is an important health index that varies with infection and correlated with stress resistance in plants. Thus, the aim of this research was to develop kinetic models to predict POD activity. Infection-induced changes in potato leaves stored in an artificial climate chest at 25°C were analyzed using hyperspectroscopy. Four prediction models were developed by using linear partial least squares (PLS) and nonlinear support vector machine (SVM) methods based on the full spectrum and effective wavelengths. The effective wavelengths were selected by the successive projection algorithm (SPA). In this study, the prediction model developed by means of SPA-SVM method obtained the best performance, with a R p (correlation coefficient of prediction) value of 0.923 and a RMSEp (root mean square error of prediction) value of 24.326. Five-order kinetics models according to the prediction model were developed, and late blight disease can be predicted using this model. This study provided a theoretical basis for the prediction of latencies of late blight.

“…In order to improve the efficiency of later modeling, SPA, CARS, and UVE algorithms were used to select the representative bands as “feature bands” from all spectral data and eliminate the bands that are not useful for this study so as to reduce the amount of data calculation. Among them, the wavelength with the least redundancy of spectral information was selected by the SPA algorithm to solve the collinear problem [ 31 ]. The wavelength point with the larger absolute value of the regression coefficient was selected by the CARS algorithm to effectively find the best spectral combination [ 32 ].…”

Wheat Kernel Variety Identification Based on a Large Near-Infrared Spectral Dataset and a Novel Deep Learning-Based Feature Selection Method

“…The methods that are popular in small dataset processing may not be suitable for applications on large and complex datasets. Thus, some common methods such as SPA-PLS, UVE-PLS, and the methods based on loading weights of latent variables of PLS ( Li et al, 2007 , 2019 ; Zhang et al, 2017 , 2020 ; Li and Hui, 2019 ) were not evaluated in this study. The UFS is a typical unsupervised feature selector.…”
