Non-destructive detection of single corn seed vigor based on visible/near-infrared spatially resolved spectroscopy combined with chemometrics.

Seed vigor is an essential quality evaluation index for seed selection. However, accurately detecting the vigor of a single corn seed is challenging. In this study, we constructed a single-fiber spatially resolved detection device using visible/near-infrared spectroscopy to investigate the patterns and correlations between spatially resolved spectroscopy (SRS) at 500-1000 nm and seed vigor. The device collected spectral data at a light source-detector distance of 5-6.6 mm on the embryo side (S1) and endosperm side (S2) of the corn seeds. The proposed spectral ratio method based on SRS and spectral combination analysis achieved an improvement in the detection accuracy of different corn seed vigor. Modeling by SG-CARS-PLSDA using the ratio method showed further improvement in the prediction ability. The highest accuracy for both S1 and S2 in the Zhengdan 958 variety was 91.67 %, while those of S1 and S2 for the Shaandan 650 variety were 86.67 % and 88.33 %, respectively. In addition, SRS was found to be more advantageous in S2 acquisition, verifying the potential of SRS in the non-destructive testing of seed vigor. This provides a favorable reference for the comprehensive evaluation of other internal quality indices of seeds. Copyright © 2024 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
