“…It is noteworthy that even using x-rays with and without contrast, it is possible that signs of oviposition and larvae F I G U R E 3 Characterization of wheat seeds undamaged and with presence of Angoumois grain moth infestation in the developmental stages as signs of eggs/oviposition, larvae, pupae and internal galleries, found by cutting the seeds with a blade, x-rays with and without contrast, and multispectral images. The yellow and orange on seed are areas non-infested by insect, whereas light to dark blue represent infestation or damage by insect go unnoticed in the analysis of these images, which may be a result of the quality of the radiographs, the moisture content of the seeds evaluated, the distance between the seeds and the x-ray emitting source, analyst interpretation, and even radiographic noise (Al-Mezeini et al, 2016;Carvalho et al, 2019;Pedersen & Brown, 1960). Alternatively, such identification problems have been solved by either segmenting radiographs, using algorithms, and in the F I G U R E 4 (a) Representation of marginal means of percentage of infested seeds considering the methodology used and data evaluation according to Tukey test.…”
