YOLOv8-Peas: a lightweight drought tolerance method for peas based on seed germination vigor.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Drought stress has become an important factor affecting global food production. Screening and breeding new varieties of peas (Pisum sativum L.) for drought-tolerant is of critical importance to ensure sustainable agricultural production and global food security. Germination rate and germination index are important indicators of seed germination vigor, and the level of germination vigor of pea seeds directly affects their yield and quality. The traditional manual germination detection can hardly meet the demand of full-time sequence nondestructive detection. We propose YOLOv8-Peas, an improved YOLOv8-n based method for the detection of pea germination vigor.

Methods

We constructed a pea germination dataset and used multiple data augmentation methods to improve th
