Plant disease detection encompasses the methods and technologies used to identify, diagnose, and monitor diseases affecting plants, ranging from traditional visual inspection to advanced imaging, molecular diagnostics, and machine learning-based tools. Early and accurate detection is critical in plant science because diseases caused by pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, and nematodes can devastate crops, reduce yields, and threaten food security. Rapid detection enables timely intervention, supports resistance breeding programs, and helps researchers understand host-pathogen interactions at the molecular level.
