Chilli leaf curl virus dataset

This dataset comprises high-resolution images of chilli (Capsicum annuum) leaves collected under real field conditions. It includes healthy leaves and chilli leaf curl virus–infected samples captured using smartphone cameras at different growth stages. Images reflect natural variations in illumination, background, and leaf orientation to ensure real-world robustness. Expert validation was performed to confirm disease labels. The dataset was curated, resized, and quality-checked before model training. It supports deep learning–based disease detection, mobile deployment, and field-level validation studies. The dataset is intended for research on early disease diagnosis and precision agriculture applications.
