  • Excitation of fluorescence using a 360-nm light source.
  • Capture of fluorescence emissions in four spectral bands: blue (450 nm), green (550 nm), red (680 nm), and far-red (740 nm).

    • Main Results:

    • Preliminary experiments successfully utilized MFIS on soybean leaves treated with DCMU herbicide.
    • MFIS demonstrated effectiveness in analyzing soybean leaves exposed to elevated tropospheric ozone.
    • Analysis of fluorescence images revealed spatial variability in fluorescence patterns across leaf samples.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed MFIS is a versatile tool for detailed analysis of plant leaf fluorescence.
    • MFIS provides valuable insights into plant stress responses and underlying fluorescence mechanisms.
    • The system's ability to capture spectral and spatial fluorescence data enhances plant stress detection.
