Costs of Measuring Leaf Area Index of Corn
Leaf area index (LAI) is an important biophysical descriptor of crop canopies. Accurate measurements of LAI are laborious and time-consuming. Many methods of measuring LAI of corn (Zea mays L.) have been reported and vary greatly in their accuracy, preclslon, bias, and ease of measurement. We examined the magnitude of plant-to-plant variability of leaf area of corn plants selected from uniform ...
متن کاملResponse of Seed Yield, Its Components and Leaf Area Index of Spring Corn to Consume Vermicompost and Iron Nano fertilizer
BACKGROUND: Organic farming has emerged as important priority area globally in view of growing demand for safe and healthy food and long term sustainability and concerns on environmental pollution associated with indiscriminate use of agrochemicals. Nano fertilizers can be easily absorbed by crops and may exhibit a prolonged effective duration of nutrient supply in soil/crop co...
متن کاملLeaf area index measurements
Leaf area index (LAI) is a key structural characteristic of forest ecosystems because of the role of green leaves in controlling many biological and physical processes in plant canopies. Accurate LA1 estimates are required in studies of ecophysiology, atmosphere-ecosystem interactions, and global change. The objective of this paper is to evaluate LA1 values obtained by several research teams us...
متن کاملSimulating leaf area of corn plants at contrasting water status
An exponential decay function was fitted with literature data to describe the decrease in corn leaf expansion rate as predawn leaf water potential decreases. The fitted functionwas then applied tomodify an existing leaf area simulation module in a soil–plant–atmosphere continuum corn simulation model (MaizSim) in order to simulate leaf area of corn plants at different water status. Data were co...
متن کاملLeaf‐IT: An Android application for measuring leaf area
The use of plant functional traits has become increasingly popular in ecological studies because plant functional traits help to understand key ecological processes in plant species and communities. This also includes changes in diversity, inter- and intraspecific interactions, and relationships of species at different spatiotemporal scales. Leaf traits are among the most important traits as th...
