Annotated image dataset with different stages of European pear rust for UAV-based automated symptom detection in orchardsMendeley Data

The evaluation of fruit genetic resources regarding a resistance to pathogens is an essential basis for subsequent selection in fruit breeding. Both genetic analysis and phenotyping of defined traits are important tools and provide decision data in the evaluation process. However, the phenotyping of...

description The evaluation of fruit genetic resources regarding a resistance to pathogens is an essential basis for subsequent selection in fruit breeding. Both genetic analysis and phenotyping of defined traits are important tools and provide decision data in the evaluation process. However, the phenotyping of plants is often carried out ‘by hand’ and remains the bottleneck in fruit breeding and fruit growing. The development of a digital and UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle)-based phenotyping method for the assessment of genotype-specific susceptibility or resistance against diseases in orchards would significantly increase the efficiency of plant breeding. In this framework, a workflow for drone-based monitoring of pathogens in orchards was developed using the European pear rust (Gymnosporangium sabinae) as model pathogen. Pear rust is widespread in orchards and causes conspicuous, clearly visible, yellow to orange-colored disease symptoms.In this paper, we provide a dataset with expert-annotated high-resolution RGB images with pear rust symptoms. For data collection, ten UAV-flight campaigns were realized between 2021 and 2023 under various weather conditions and with different flight parameters in the experimental orchard of the Julius Kühn-Institute for Breeding Research on Fruit Crops in Dresden-Pillnitz (Germany). 1394 images were captured of different pear genotypes, including varieties, wild species and progeny from breeding. The dataset contains manually labelled images with a size of 768 × 768 pixels of leaves infected with pear rust at different stages of development, labelled as class GYMNSA, as well as background images without symptoms. Each leaf with pear rust symptoms was annotated with the drawing method by two points (bounding boxes) using the Computer Vision Annotation Tool (CVAT, v1.1.0) [1] and presented in YOLO 1.1 file format (.txt files). A total of 584 annotated images and 162 background images, organized into a training and validation set, are included in the GYMNSA dataset. This GYMNSA dataset can be used as a resource for researchers and developers working on drone-based plant disease monitoring systems.
