Grain rot dataset caused by Burkholderia Glumae Bacteria.

Abstract

The Burkholderia glumae bacterium causes bacterial grain rot in rice, posing significant threats to the crop's yield, particularly thriving during the rice flowering and grain filling stages. This disease is especially evident in rice grains before harvest, presenting challenges in the detection and classification of rice panicles. Firstly, diseased grains may mix with healthy ones, complicating their separation. Secondly, the size of grains on a panicle varies from small to large, which can be problematic when detected using object detection methods. Thirdly, disease classification can be conducted by evaluating the extent of infection on rice panicles to assess its impact on yield. Finally, the challenges in detection, classification, and preprocessing for disease identification and management necessitate the adoption of diverse approaches in machine learning and deep learning to develop optimal methods and support smart agriculture.
