abstract = {The quantification of secondary metabolite content is
crucial for the industrial production of high-quality
essential oil from medicinal plants, i.e. to determine an
optimal harvest time to achieve the desired quality.
Spectral reflectance measurements provide a potential
technique to perform non-destructive and real-time
monitoring of secondary metabolite content. However, not all
secondary metabolites are optically active in the range of
hyperspectral sensors. In this study, a method for the
non-destructive quantification of eugenol (Eu) and methyl
eugenol (MeEu) in holy basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum L.) was
developed by combining leaf-level hyperspectral measurements
with mathematical modelling based on partial least squares
regression (PLSR). To generate a wide range dataset of
secondary metabolite content, three experiments
investigating developmental variation, osmotic stress
response and secondary metabolism induction by methyl
jasmonate were conducted with two commercial cultivars.
Hyperspectral point measurement (350-2500 nm) of individual
leaves were combined with destructive quantification of Eu
and MeEu by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. We
observed variation of Eu and MeEu concentrations between
cultivars, treatments, and leaf ages. PLSR modelling based
on the full wavelength spectrum resulted in quantification
of Eu and MeEu with R2 of 0.62 and 0.70, respectively, with
RMSEP of 1.10 and 0.98. We explain the high correlation by
an indirect quantification of these compounds based on
associated changes in plant secondary metabolism. This study
demonstrated that hyperspectral data combined with PLSR
provides a promising technique for the non-destructive
quantification of foliar secondary metabolites for
industrial applications even in absence of specific
absorption feature within the measurement range.},
