Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of separating, enriching, classifying and identifying airborne disease spores, and particularly relates to an airborne disease spore detection device and method for crops. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the increasing demand for a better life, the demand for the "vegetable basket" project has been growing day by day. The vegetable industry in China has developed rapidly. The vegetable basket project in China is one of the main supports and an important way to increase farmers' income. Tomatoes and cucumbers are deeply loved by consumers because of their rich taste and nutritional value, and the cultivation areas of tomatoes and cucumbers account for the main part of the protected cultivation area in China. Tomatoes and cucumbers are inevitably exposed to biological stresses during their growth process, and the temperature and humidity conditions in the greenhouse environment are more conducive to the occurrence, prevalence and spread of airborne fungal diseases. Tomato gray mold is caused by Botrytis cinerea. This disease mainly occurs during the flowering and fruiting periods of tomatoes. After the disease occurs, it can damage the flowers, fruits, leaves and stems of tomato plants. It has an early onset time, a long duration, and is likely to cause a large number of rotten fruits in tomatoes. Cucumber downy mildew is caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis. After the disease occurs, it mainly damages the leaves of cucumber plants, and can also damage the stems and inflorescences of cucumber plants. It can occur from the seedling stage to the growth stage of cucumber plants, especially when the cucumber enters the fruit-harvesting stage, the disease is more severe. After the disease occurs, most of the leaves of cucumber plants can wither and die within one or two weeks, and the cucumber field turns yellow. Cucumber powdery mildew (commonly known as "white disease") is caused by Podosphaera xanthii and Sphaerotheca fuliginea. After cucumber powdery mildew occurs, it mainly damages the leaves of cucumber plants, and also damages the petioles and stems of cucumber plants. It usually occurs more severely in the middle and late growth stages of cucumber plants, and is likely to cause the leaves of cucumber plants to wither and even pull out the plants in advance. These airborne fungal diseases will become increasingly severe with the expansion of cultivation area and the increase in the number of consecutive cropping years. In severe cases, it can cause a reduction in production, with a yield loss of 20-50%, or even a complete crop failure.

[0003] At present, the diagnosis and control of greenhouse crop diseases are mainly based on the experience of producers and the results of conventional laboratory or on-site tests. Laboratory testing techniques mainly include electron microscopy testing techniques, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), molecular biology testing techniques, etc. These testing techniques can accurately determine the types of greenhouse crop diseases, but laboratory testing techniques have the disadvantages of being destructive, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Conventional on-site testing techniques mainly use spectral detection techniques and image processing techniques to detect known or specific crop diseases. These techniques can achieve the detection of crop diseases through statistical modeling inversion, and based on this, accurate guidance can be provided for timely prediction and treatment of diseases during greenhouse crop cultivation. However, these diagnostic techniques cannot achieve early warning before the epidemic of diseases, but can only detect them when the diseases occur, and by then, the best window period for preventing and controlling crop diseases has been missed.

[0004] Actually, before the occurrence of airborne diseases in greenhouse crops and the large-scale spread of diseases, the first thing that happens is the spread of airborne disease spores with the air current in the air. When the airborne disease spores in the spread come into contact with plant leaves, they will enter the plant tissue through the stomata of the plant leaves and germinate, and then release more airborne disease spores to continue spreading among plants. Therefore, as long as the spread information of airborne disease spores can be obtained in real time from the transmission route, the prediction and reporting of crop airborne diseases can be carried out in a timely manner. However, there are some problems in the efficient separation and enrichment of airborne disease spores in greenhouse crops: for example, the air composition in the greenhouse is complex and there are a large number of particulate impurities, including pollen, droplets, eggs, dust, pathogen spores, etc., with scales ranging from nm to μm. In addition, the volume fraction of airborne disease spore particles in the air is extremely low, generally less than two per hundred thousand. It is very difficult to quickly and accurately separate airborne disease spores from the mixed particles with extremely low proportion and complex composition, and to separate and enrich spores of different sizes and shapes to the detection area.

[0005] With the improvement of technicians on spore traps, there are more and more spore traps sold on the market now, and using spore traps to capture airborne disease spores in the air has become a common method. For example, existing portable spore traps, vehicle-mounted spore traps, and fixed spore traps all first capture airborne disease spores in the air, and then use a microscope for identification, achieving the capture and detection of airborne disease spores spreading in the air to a certain extent. Although various forms of spore traps sold on the market now can capture airborne disease spores in the air, they cannot separate the captured airborne disease spores, so it is impossible to effectively separate the captured airborne disease spores from other impurities, which is not conducive to the timely identification and counting of airborne disease spores.

[0006] In summary, the existing detection of disease spores has the disadvantages of long time consumption, large lag, high equipment cost, difficult operation, and inability to separate and enrich disease spores in the air. Therefore, the detection device and method for airborne disease spores in a greenhouse are still technical problems that need to be solved urgently. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a detection device and method for airborne disease spores of crops, which is a detection device and method for airborne disease spores based on the relative light intensity distribution value of polarization-diffraction fringes, realizing the classification and recognition of airborne disease spores of crops and improving the detection efficiency of disease spores.

[0022] Further, the axis of the sheath flow channel intersects the axis of the air inlet section of the pretreatment channel at an acute angle;

[0023] The sheath flow channel includes a first sheath flow channel and a second sheath flow channel; the first sheath flow channel and the second sheath flow channel are respectively provided symmetrically on both sides of the pretreatment channel.

[0024] Further, corresponding first electrode structure and fourth electrode structure, second electrode structure and fifth electrode structure, third electrode structure and sixth electrode structure are provided at the downstream of the pretreatment channel where the sheath flow channels are located; the first electrode structure, the second electrode structure, the third electrode structure, the fourth electrode structure, the fifth electrode structure, and the sixth electrode structure are respectively connected to the signal generator to generate an electric field in the pretreatment channel, so that the airborne disease spores are preliminarily separated when passing through the electric field of the pretreatment channel.

[0025] Further, the airborne disease spore secondary separation channel includes a first airborne disease spore secondary separation channel and a second airborne disease spore secondary separation channel;

[0026] One end of the first secondary separation channel for airborne disease spores is communicated with the pretreatment channel, and the other end is provided with a third enrichment area for airborne disease spores and a fourth enrichment area for airborne disease spores. The third enrichment area for airborne disease spores is provided with a third air flow outlet, and the fourth enrichment area for airborne disease spores is provided with a fourth air flow outlet;

[0028] The first secondary separation channel for airborne disease spores is provided with a seventh electrode structure and a thirteenth electrode structure arranged oppositely, and an eighth electrode structure and a fourteenth electrode structure;

[0029] The second secondary separation channel for airborne disease spores is provided with a ninth electrode structure and a twelfth electrode structure arranged oppositely, and a tenth electrode structure and an eleventh electrode structure;

[0030] The seventh electrode structure, the eighth electrode structure, the ninth electrode structure, the tenth electrode structure, the eleventh electrode structure, the twelfth electrode structure, the thirteenth electrode structure, and the fourteenth electrode structure are respectively connected to a signal generator to generate an electric field in the secondary separation channel for airborne disease spores, so that the airborne disease spores are secondarily separated when passing through the electric field of the secondary separation channel for airborne disease spores and enter different enrichment areas for airborne disease spores respectively.

[0031] A detection method according to the crop airborne disease spore detection device described above, comprising the following steps:

[0032] Step S1: Turn on the micro air pump and the signal generator. The signal generator generates an alternating voltage, and an electric field is generated in the compound field microfluidic chip, so that different types of disease spores in the air are enriched in different enrichment areas of the compound field microfluidic chip;

[0033] Step S2: Turn on the switch of the light source. The light source generates interference light through the light-transmitting micropores and irradiates the compound field microfluidic chip;

[0034] Step S3: The polarization camera images and collects the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores in the enrichment area of the compound field microfluidic chip and transmits them to the image processing unit;

[0035] Step S4: The image processing unit processes the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores to obtain the relative light intensity distribution values of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores;

[0036] Step S5: Classify and identify the airborne disease spores according to the differences in the relative light intensity distribution values of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores extracted in Step S4.

[0037] In the said Step S3, the polarization camera collects the diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores in different enrichment regions of the composite field microfluidic chip at polarization directions of 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135°.

[0038] In the above solution, the relative light intensity distribution value of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint image of the airborne disease spores in Step S4 is obtained through the following steps:

[0039] Extract the characteristics of the relative light intensity distribution of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint image of the airborne disease spores, calculate the peak value AP, valley value AV, and center value C of the relative light intensity distribution of the spore's polarization-diffraction fingerprint image, and calculate the ratio PCR of the peak value to the valley value, the ratio VCR of the peak value to the center value, and the ratio PVR of the valley value to the center value.

[0043] C represents the relative light intensity of the central region of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint spectrum of the airborne disease spores;

[0044] i is the number of bright fringes, and j is the number of dark fringes.

[0045] In the above solution, the SVM model is used to classify and identify the airborne disease spores in Step S5. Specifically:

[0046] Use Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and the comprehensive evaluation index F value F1-Score as the evaluation indicators for the classification and identification of the disease spores. The calculation formulas are as follows:

[0047]

[0048] In the formula: TP (True Positive) represents the number of positive samples predicted as positive by the model;

[0050] FN (False Negative) represents the number of positive samples predicted as negative by the model;

[0051] TN (True Negative) represents the number of negative samples predicted as negative by the model;

[0052] When the classifier SVM model performs the classification task, the actually predicted number of airborne disease spores is regarded as the number of positive samples, and the sum of the remaining airborne disease spores is the number of negative samples.

[0053] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0054] In the present invention, the light source generates interference light through the light-transmitting micropores and irradiates the composite-field microfluidic chip. An electric field is generated inside the composite-field microfluidic chip, enabling different types of disease spores to be enriched in different enrichment regions of the composite-field microfluidic chip. The polarization camera images and collects the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores in the enrichment region of the composite-field microfluidic chip, and transmits them to the image processing unit for processing to obtain the relative light intensity distribution values of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores.

[0110] In an embodiment of the present invention, a hyperspectral device is used to collect the reflection spectral data of tomato gray mold spores, cucumber downy mildew spores, and cucumber powdery mildew spores samples. The hyperspectral device used in the experiment is preferably the HIS-VNIR scanning visible-near infrared hyperspectral imaging system produced by Shanghai Wuling Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd. This visible-near infrared hyperspectral imaging system mainly includes a visible-near infrared spectrometer, a dark box, an adjustable light source, a stage, a mobile stage, a displacement controller, and a computer, etc. The original spectral characteristic curves of the tomato gray mold spores, cucumber downy mildew spores, and cucumber powdery mildew spores samples are collected, and the original spectral data of the tomato gray mold spores, cucumber downy mildew spores, and cucumber powdery mildew spores samples are obtained as Figure 4 shown. To eliminate the influence of noise on the original spectral analysis, the Savitzky-Golay (S-G) five-point smoothing is used to process the original spectral data of the airborne disease spore samples. The original spectral data is denoised, averaged, and smoothed, and then the schematic diagram of the spectral data of the airborne disease spores obtained by the smoothing process is as Figure 5 shown. There are 512 bands in the original spectral data of the airborne disease spore samples, and there is a large amount of information redundancy between the bands. It is necessary to perform dimensionality reduction processing on the original spectral data. Selecting a suitable data dimensionality reduction algorithm can improve the modeling efficiency and accuracy of the spectral data. In this embodiment, the method of principal component analysis (PCA, Principal Component Analysis) is used to select the characteristic wavelengths of the original spectral data of the collected airborne disease spore samples to achieve the purpose of dimensionality reduction of the original spectral data.

The cumulative contribution rate of the first principal component and the second principal component of the airborne disease spore spectral data is 92.271%, indicating that the first two principal components contain 92.271% of the information of the spectral data of the airborne disease spore samples. In this embodiment, the first 2 principal components of the spectral data of the airborne disease spore samples are analyzed and processed, and the linear combination coefficients, variances, and comprehensive score model coefficients of the first 2 principal components are solved respectively. Finally, the comprehensive coefficient weights of the first 2 principal components are obtained, as Figure 6As shown in the figure, there are three peaks in the comprehensive coefficient weights of the first two principal components of the spectral data of airborne disease spore samples in the wavelength range of 390 - 1050 nm, corresponding to the wavelength bands of 435 nm, 720 nm, and 980 nm respectively, and three valleys corresponding to the wavelength bands of 475 nm, 920 nm, and 1025 nm respectively. Considering the original data of the spectral data of airborne disease spore samples and the comprehensive coefficient weights of its first two principal components, in this embodiment, light sources with wavelengths of 435 nm, 475 nm, and 720 nm are selected as the light sources for diffraction - polarization imaging of airborne disease spores.

[0131] In this embodiment, the detection method of the crop airborne disease spore detection device includes the following steps:

[0132] Step S1: Turn on the micro air pump and the signal generator. The signal generator generates an alternating voltage, and an electric field is generated in the compound field microfluidic chip 4, so that different types of disease spores in the air are enriched in different enrichment areas of the compound field microfluidic chip 4;

[0133] Step S2: Turn on the switch of the light source. The light source generates interference light through the light-transmitting micropores 3 and irradiates the compound field microfluidic chip 4;

[0134] Step S3: The polarization camera 5 images and collects the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores in the enrichment area of the compound field microfluidic chip 4 and transmits them to the image processing unit 6;

[0135] Step S4: The image processing unit 6 processes the polarization-diffraction fingerprint image of the airborne disease spores, extracts the characteristics of the relative light intensity distribution of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint image of the spores, calculates the peak value AP, valley value AV, and center value C of the relative light intensity distribution of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint image of the spores, and calculates the ratio of the peak value to the valley value, the ratio of the peak value to the center value, and the ratio of the valley value to the center value;

[0136] Extract the main bright fringe, main dark fringe, and center fringe of the polarization images of the diffraction fingerprints of Botrytis cinerea spores, Podosphaera xanthii spores, and Pseudoperonospora cubensis spores at 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135°. Then, calculate these three types of characteristics to obtain three parameters: the ratio of the peak value to the center value (PCR, Peak to Center ratio), the ratio of the valley value to the center value (VCR, Valley to Center ratio), and the ratio of the peak value to the valley value (PVR, Peak to Valley ratio). The calculation methods of the parameters refer to formulas (1)-(3).

[0137] To extract the diffraction-polarization fingerprint image characteristics of airborne disease spores, the diffraction-polarization images of the spores were collected and processed. On this basis, the polarization images of the diffraction fingerprints of airborne disease spores at 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135° were obtained respectively. The present invention extracted the characteristics of a total of 600 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of airborne disease spores, with 200 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images for each type of airborne disease spore. The two-dimensional relative light intensity distribution diagrams of the diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of the three types of spores are respectively as Figure 9-11 shown.

[0138] Taking the 45° relative light intensity distribution in the extraction results of the diffraction-polarization fingerprint image characteristics of Botrytis cinerea spores as an example, combined with Figure 12 the figure seen, with the first peak value 49, the second peak value 50, the center value 51, the first valley value 52, and the second valley value 5, it can be determined that the number of bright fringes and the number of dark fringes are both two. Therefore, i = 1, 2, j = 1, 2.

[0139] Therefore, the three parameters of the ratio of the peak value to the center value (PCR), the ratio of the valley value to the center value (VCR), and the ratio of the peak value to the valley value (PVR) are calculated as follows:

[0140]

[0141] In the formula: AP i represents the relative light intensity of the peak of the diffraction fingerprint spectrum of the airborne disease spores;

[0142] AV j represents the relative light intensity of the trough of the diffraction fingerprint pattern of airborne disease spores;

[0143] C represents the relative light intensity of the central region of the diffraction fingerprint pattern of airborne disease spores;

[0144] i is the number of bright fringes and j is the number of dark fringes.

[0145] Step S5: Then, the machine learning realizes the classification and recognition of disease spores based on the characteristics of the polarized-diffraction fingerprint images of disease spores extracted in Step S4. In this embodiment, the SVM model is used to classify and recognize airborne disease spores, and accuracy, precision, recall, and the comprehensive evaluation index F value (F1-Score) are used as the evaluation indexes for the classification and recognition of disease spores. The calculation formulas are as follows:

[0146]

[0147] In the formula: TP (True Positive) represents the number of positive samples predicted as positive by the model;

[0148] FP (False Positive) represents the number of negative samples predicted as positive by the model;

[0149] FN (False Negative) represents the number of positive samples predicted as negative by the model;

[0150] TN (True Negative) represents the number of negative samples predicted as negative by the model.

[0151] When the classifier SVM model performs the classification task, the actually predicted number of airborne disease spores is regarded as the number of positive samples, and the sum of the numbers of other airborne disease spores is regarded as the number of negative samples.

[0152] From Figure 9-11 It can be seen that the diffraction fingerprints of each type of airborne disease spores have their unique relative light intensity distributions in the polarized images at 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135° directions. This is because the polarized images in different angular directions block part of the light source information under the action of the polarizer. The statistical results of the relative light intensity distribution values of the diffraction-polarization fingerprint image characteristics of the three types of airborne disease spores are shown in Table 2.

[0153] Table 2 Statistical results of the relative light intensity distribution of the diffraction-polarization fingerprints of three types of airborne disease spores

[0154]

[0155] Combined with the information of the relative light intensity distribution value of the diffraction-polarization fingerprint of the airborne disease spores extracted, six values of each diffraction fingerprint of the airborne disease spores at one polarization angle are calculated according to the formula. There are 24 values at four polarization angles, and these values are used to form 24 characteristic values of the diffraction fingerprint image of the airborne disease spores. Therefore, in this embodiment, the SVM algorithm is used to classify three types of airborne disease spores according to the 24 characteristic values of the diffraction polarization fingerprint image, and the confusion matrix is used to evaluate the performance of the classifier, and the accuracy, precision, recall rate, and the comprehensive evaluation index F value are used as evaluation indicators to evaluate the classification results. A total of 600 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores of greenhouse crops are collected in the experiment, with 200 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of the spores of tomato gray mold, cucumber powdery mildew, and cucumber downy mildew respectively. 70% of them are randomly selected as the training set, and the remaining 30% are used as the test set. Figure 13 It is the confusion matrix of the classification results of the SVM classification model for the test set of the diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of the airborne disease spores.

[0156] From Figure 13 It can be seen that the SVM classification model correctly identified 56 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of tomato gray mold spores, 56 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of cucumber downy mildew spores, and 58 diffraction-polarization fingerprint images of cucumber powdery mildew spores. Among them, the numbers of tomato gray mold spores misclassified as cucumber downy mildew spores and powdery mildew spores are 3 and 1 respectively, the numbers of cucumber downy mildew spores misclassified as tomato gray mold spores and cucumber powdery mildew spores are 2 and 3 respectively, and the numbers of cucumber powdery mildew spores misclassified as tomato gray mold spores and cucumber downy mildew spores are both 1. The statistical results of the SVM classification model are shown in Table 3.

[0157] Table 3 Statistical Results of the SVM Classification Model

[0158]

[0159] And the accuracy, precision, recall rate, and the comprehensive evaluation index F value of the classification results of the SVM classification model are calculated according to formula (4-(7)), and the results are shown in Table 4.

[0160] Table 4 Performance Indicators of the SVM Classification Model

[0161]

[0162] As can be seen from Table 4, the precision, accuracy, recall rate, and F1-Score of the SVM classification model for the classification of tomato gray mold spores are 96.02%, 94.92%, 93.33%, and 94.12% respectively. The precision, accuracy, recall rate, and F1-Score of the SVM classification model for the classification of cucumber downy mildew spores are 94.94%, 93.22%, 91.67%, and 92.44% respectively. The precision, accuracy, recall rate, and F1-Score of the SVM classification model for the classification of cucumber powdery mildew spores are 96.57%, 93.55%, 96.67%, and 95.08% respectively. The average recognition precision, accuracy, recall rate, and F1-Score of the SVM model for the three airborne disease spores in greenhouse crops are 95.85%, 93.89%, 93.88%, and 93.87% respectively. As a comprehensive evaluation index, F1-Score represents the overall performance of the classifier. When classifying airborne disease spores based on the diffraction-polarization fingerprint image features of airborne disease spores, the F1-Score value of the SVM model reaches 93.87%. Therefore, based on the extraction of the diffraction-polarization fingerprint image features of airborne disease spores in greenhouse crops, the SVM model is used to classify the three common airborne disease spores in greenhouse crops.

[0163] The composite field microfluidic chip 4 of the present invention separates and enriches airborne disease spores transmitted in the air in the greenhouse; the lensless polarization camera 5 collects diffraction fingerprint images at four polarization directions of 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135° under the action of interference light in different enrichment regions of the composite field microfluidic chip 4; the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images are subjected to image analysis and feature extraction of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images under the image processing component 6 to obtain the characteristic data of the relative light intensity distribution value of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of airborne disease spores, and finally the classification and recognition of airborne disease spores are realized based on the characteristic data of the relative light intensity distribution value of the polarization-diffraction fingerprint images of airborne disease spores. The technical solution of the present invention solves the problems of complex air composition, low volume ratio of disease spores, and difficult separation and enrichment; and the problem that the volume of airborne disease spores is small, and it is difficult to collect complete disease spore images in the microfluidic enrichment region due to limited field of view in traditional microscopy. The present invention has the characteristics of small volume and easy operation, and improves the efficiency of disease spore detection.
