Abstrakt: Advancements in hyperspectral imaging (HSI) together with the establishment of dedicated plant phenotyping facilities worldwide have enabled high-throughput collection of plant spectral images with the aim of inferring target phenotypes. Here, we test the utility of HSI-derived canopy data, which were collected as part of an automated plant phenotyping system, to predict physiological traits in cultivated Asian rice ( Oryza sativa ). We evaluated 23 genetically diverse rice accessions from two subpopulations under two contrasting nitrogen conditions and measured 14 leaf- and canopy-level parameters to serve as ground-reference observations. HSI-derived data were used to (1) classify treatment groups across multiple vegetative stages using support vector machines (≥ 83% accuracy) and (2) predict leaf-level nitrogen content (N, %, n=88 ) and carbon to nitrogen ratio (C:N, n=88 ) with Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) following RReliefF wavelength selection (validation: R 2 =  0.797 and RMSEP = 0.264 for N; R 2 =  0.592 and RMSEP = 1.688 for C:N). Results demonstrated that models developed using training data from one rice subpopulation were able to predict N and C:N in the other subpopulation, while models trained on a single treatment group were not able to predict samples from the other treatment. Finally, optimization of PLSR-RReliefF hyperparameters showed that 300-400 wavelengths generally yielded the best model performance with a minimum calibration sample size of 62. Results support the use of canopy-level hyperspectral imaging data to estimate leaf-level N and C:N across diverse rice, and this work highlights the importance of considering calibration set design prior to data collection as well as hyperparameter optimization for model development in future studies.
