We measured growth and development variables on single soybean [Glycin max (L.) Merr.] plants under five management strategies in the upper Midwestern USA. Plants grown under different management strategies differed significantly in their geometric structures, and were classified into their proper categories with 75 to 100% correct classification, based mainly on differences in their fractal di...
In the coastal temperate rainforests of southeast Alaska, much progress has been made in describing landscape-level natural disturbances and formulating management systems that emulate those disturbances. Little is known, however, concerning canopy gaps, the dominant form of natural disturbance in the region. During June–August, 1991–1993, we characterized canopy gap patterns and dynamics at th...
The arrangement of leaf material is critical in determining the light environment, and subsequently the photosynthetic productivity of complex crop canopies. However, links between specific canopy architectural traits and photosynthetic productivity across a wide genetic background are poorly understood for field grown crops. The architecture of five genetically diverse rice varieties-four pare...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In a leaf canopy, there is a turnover of leaves; i.e. they are produced, senesce and fall. These processes determine the amount of leaf area in the canopy, which in turn determines canopy photosynthesis. The turnover rate of leaves is affected by environmental factors and is different among species. This mini-review discusses factors responsible for leaf dynamics in plant ca...
Growth at elevated CO2 often decreases photosynthetic capacity (acclimation) and leaf N concentrations. Lower-shaded canopy leaves may undergo both CO2 and shade acclimation. The relationship of acclimatory responses of flag and lower-shaded canopy leaves of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to the N content, and possible factors affecting N gain and distribution within the plant were investigated i...
Diagnosis of crop growth and nutrient status is critical for prediction of agriculture yield and quality at Growth stage. Two experiments, one in 2006 and one in 2007 were conducted to find out spr-wheat canopy and leaf spectral characters nondestructively measurement, and for assessing spring wheat growth status non-destructively at the Experimental Farm (30o53′N, 104o25′E) of Lanzhou Universi...
Communities of plant-parasitic nematodes collected from five different vegetation types (canopy woodland, savannah, gallery forest, cultivated perennial, and annual plants) and soils (yellowish red latosols, dark red latosols, arenosols, acrisols, and gleysols) were studied. Ninety percent of the soil samples collected from savannah contained at least four genera of plant-parasitic nematodes. T...
Leaf area index (LAI) and plant area index (PAI) are common and important biophysical parameters used to estimate agronomical variables such as canopy growth, light interception and water requirements of plants and trees. LAI can be either measured directly using destructive methods or indirectly using dedicated and expensive instrumentation, both of which require a high level of know-how to op...
Water stress caused by water scarcity has a negative impact on the wine industry. Several strategies have been implemented for optimizing water application in vineyards. In this regard, midday stem water potential (SWP) and thermal infrared (TIR) imaging for crop water stress index (CWSI) have been used to assess plant water stress on a vine-by-vine basis without considering the spatial variabi...
Increasing atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition could profoundly impact community structure and ecosystem functions in forests. However, conventional experiments with understory addition of N (UAN) largely neglect canopy-associated biota and processes and therefore may not realistically simulate atmospheric N deposition to generate reliable impacts on forest ecosystems. Here we, for the first ti...
