Biophotonics applied to early diagnosis of greening (HLB)
Biophotonics applied to early diagnosis of greening (HLB)
This project proposed analytical methods to use biophotonics applied to early diagnosis of Greening (HLB) - currently the worst citrus disease - with potential for large-scale application, when used in conjunction with precision agriculture techniques, to generate infestation maps for plant disease control. The percentage of error for each technique was evaluated through advanced statistical methods. The combination of techniques to increase the percentage of correct diagnoses was also evaluated in this project.
