A research team leverages chlorophyll fluorescence (ChlF) imaging, a cutting-edge technique, to identify reliable pre-symptomatic diagnostic indicators for rice blast and brown spot.
A research team has developed an innovative remote sensing model that significantly improves the accuracy of monitoring nitrogen accumulation in wheat crops.
A research team now proposes a novel Multi-Granularity Alignment (MGA) domain adaptation framework that dramatically improves cross-domain detection accuracy, enabling deep learning models to maintain high performance across datasets collected in different countries and conditions.
A research team pioneers an automated, high-throughput pipeline using open-source tools to quantify over 50 root traits in diverse maize genotypes, enabling researchers to investigate how genetics, hormones, and developmental stages influence root growth.
Inspired by a hitchhiking fish that uses a specialized suction organ to latch onto other marine animals, MIT engineers designed a mechanical adhesive device that attaches to soft, slippery surfaces and remains there for days or weeks. The device could be used to deliver drugs in the GI tract or monitor aquatic environments.
