| Abstract | Downy mildew (DM) caused by the biotrophic obligate oomycete Peronospora arborescens (Berk.) is one of the most economically limiting diseases of opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) worldwide. The first symptoms appear as small chlorotic leaf lesions, which can evolve to curled and thickened tissues that become deformed and necrotic as the disease develops. The present study explored the use of high-resolution thermal and multi-spectral imagery as an indicator of DM infection. Work was conducted in two opium poppy field plots artificially infected by P. arborescens. Airborne thermal and multi-spectral imagery were acquired at 200 mm resolution on three dates in spring of 2009 using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Leaf reflectance and transmittance spectra of DM asymptomatic and symptomatic opium poppy leaves were measured using an integrating sphere. Simulation work was conducted with the coupled PROSPECT + SAILH radiative transfer model to assess the effects of the variability found in an opium poppy plot developing a DM epidemic on the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and the green/red index (R$_{550}$/R$_{670}$) calculated from the multi-spectral imagery. The airborne flights enabled DM detection by using image-derived canopy temperature (Tc) normalized by air temperature (Tc − Ta) and the green/red index (R$_{550}$/R$_{670}$). T$_{min}$ for each grid unit was calculated to estimate pure-vegetation temperature removing background and soil effects. T$_{min}$ − Ta and R$_{550}$/R$_{670}$ were assessed as a function of aggregated NDVI clusters to compare asymptomatic and symptomatic plants normalized by similar growth levels. Results demonstrated that Tc − Ta and the R$_{550}$/R$_{670}$ index were related to physiological stress caused by DM infection. In addition, T$_{min}$ − Ta was found to decrease as the NDVI increased and symptomatic plants reached significantly higher (P < 0.05) temperatures for an NDVI ≥0.6. The R$_{550}$/R$_{670}$ index was positively correlated with the NDVI, showing significantly higher values (P < 0.05) in symptomatic plants with an NDVI ≥0.5. These results demonstrate the feasibility of detecting P. arborescens infection in opium poppy plants using high-resolution thermal and multi-spectral imagery acquired with an UAV. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
