TL;DR: The results revealed that, in addition to the amplitude ratio of R/FR fluorescence, B/G fluorescence also facilitated reliable and robust discrimination among the four experimental groups, irrespective of the nitrogen status of the plant.

TL;DR: The described method is of general interest for pre-symptomatic pathogen detection based on fluorescence spectra and demonstrated that the achieved classification accuracy could be attained on the second day after inoculation, before any visible symptoms appeared.

TL;DR: Drought-induced stress in the vegetative phase can be rapidly and non-destructively sensed with multiparametric fluorescence devices, and the short-term modification of the indices after drought and re-watering reveal the potential of these parameters as additional tool for crop management.

TL;DR: Results indicate that Y(NO) might be suitable for discriminating between wheat genotypes as early as 2 days after inoculation, and might be adopted as an additional tool for the early screening of new genotypes, especially in breeding programs that aim for high resistance to disease and low crop variability for precision agriculture.

TL;DR: Determinations of ultraviolet, laser-induced fluorescence intensity and lifetime are suitable approaches to presymptomatically detect powdery mildew on wheat leaves one day after inoculation.
