Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInternet of Things and Human Neocortex Inspired Algorithms for the Plant Disease Prediction-Sheath Blight for Paddy PlantThangaraj Ethilu, K. Parthiban, Arockia Jayadhas S et al.Sheath blight disease (Rhizoctonia solani) poses a critical threat to paddy (Oryza sativa) production, causing up to 50% yield losses under conducive environmental conditions. Existing computer vision-based disease detection systems identify infections only after symptom manifestation, while conventional machine learning prediction models suffer from high computational demands, data preprocessing requirements, and noise sensitivity. This research proposes a novel Hierarchical Temporal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 11 · 18 Dec 2025 · 1,772 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnraveling the Mechanisms of Plant Structural Defenses against Insect PestsAroni Preya Biswas, Roksana Al Nafiu Insha, Md. Khairul Mazed et al.Plants employ a variety of physical, chemical, and genetic strategies to defend against herbivore attacks. These biochemical defense mechanisms are complex and dynamic, encompassing both direct and indirect responses. Defense-related chemicals, whether constitutive or induced by herbivore damage, significantly influence herbivore feeding behavior, growth, and survival. Plant defense systems impact herbivore nutrition, development, and survival, highlighting the importance of chemical … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2025 · 5,793 accessesView PDFCite
