Abstract

In recent years, hyperspectral imaging has been widely adopted in agriculture and plant phenotyping, while its application in forestry has been increasing. From that point onward, hyperspectral imaging has become a valuable tool for plant phenotyping, enabling the assessment of a broad range of plant traits. Given that seedlings of forest trees are one of the most widely used types of forest planting stock, advancements in hyperspectral technology have created new possibilities for improving seedling quality assessment. High-quality forest seedlings are important for the successful establishment of forest stands, especially after outplanting within restoration initiatives. Even though hyperspectral imaging brings numerous advantages, continued technological improvements are necessary to address its several limitations and challenges. Despite its widespread use in agricultural phenotyping, applications in forest nursery production remain limited. Therefore, this review focuses on research involving hyperspectral imaging in forest seedling production and its potential for assessing seedling quality parameters.
