Short communication Nondestructive leaf area estimation of ‘Niagara’ and ‘DeChaunac’ grapevines
Leaves were sampled from Vitis labruscana Bailey cv. ‘Niagara’ and the interspecific hybrid ‘DeChaunac’ grapevines several times during a 2-year investigation of leaf area estimation. Linear measurements of leaf length and width were made and correlated with leaf area measurements made with a computerized image processing system. For each cultivar, nine regression equations were derived and com...
متن کاملConvergence in leaf size versus twig leaf area scaling: do plants optimize leaf area partitioning?
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Corner's rule states that thicker twigs bear larger leaves. The exact nature of this relationship and why it should occur has been the subject of numerous studies. It is obvious that thicker twigs should support greater total leaf area ([Formula: see text]) for hydraulical and mechanical reasons. But it is not obvious why mean leaf size ([Formula: see text]) should scale pos...
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 کاملNondestructive optical determination of fiber organization in intact myocardial wall.
Mapping the myocardial fiber organization is important for assessing the electrical and mechanical properties of normal and diseased hearts. Current methods to determine the fiber organization have several limitations: histological sectioning mechanically distorts the tissue and is labor-intensive, while diffusion tensor imaging has low spatial resolution and requires expensive MRI scanners. He...
متن کاملAssociation Mapping for Fruit, Plant and Leaf Morphology Traits in Eggplant
An eggplant (Solanum melongena) association panel of 191 accessions, comprising a mixture of breeding lines, old varieties and landrace selections was SNP genotyped and phenotyped for key breeding fruit and plant traits at two locations over two seasons. A genome-wide association (GWA) analysis was performed using the mixed linear model, which takes into account both a kinship matrix and the su...
