ABSTRACT Leaf color is used as a guide for assessments of nutrient status and plant’s health. So that a new method is proposed for the detection of Chlorophyll content based on the leaf color. Based on green color present in leaf we can estimate the chlorophyll content in leaf. The proposed equation produced superior results with the true value of chlorophyll content measured in the laboratory ...

The monitor and prediction of crop developmental stages, particularly harvest time, play an important role in planning greenhouse cropping programs and timetables by cut rose producers. There have been many scientific reports on the application of image analysis technology in estimating greenhouse crop growth stages. In the present research, we studied leaf color variations over time by taking ...

Leaf color is one of the well-sought traits in breeding program for Anthurium andraeanum Lind. Knowledge of mechanisms in anthuriums to produce leaves with different shades of green would help to effectively select desirable traits. In this study, the micro- and ultra-structural and physiological features of leaves on wild type and leaf color mutants (dark green, rubescent, etiolated, albino) i...

In this system we improved the performance of an automatic system for extracting leaf contour. The proposed leaf contour extraction method consists of three major procedures: the detection of four edge points, and contour tracing. Leaf detection includes two stages: feature extraction and matching. For the leaf contour extraction part, we present a new technique for automatically identifying th...

Abstract Plant color was an important landscape of the urban green space, and quantitative analysis its characteristics could provide a basis for plant configuration. The leaf attributes 80 colored-leaf plants were studied Scenic Beauty Estimates (SBE) used to evaluate their beauty. data leaves obtained by MATLAB software scanner under hue–saturation–brightness (HSB) system then further analyze...

Tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa Andrews) is an important traditional flower in China. Besides its beautiful flower, the leaf of tree peony has also good ornamental value owing to its leaf color change in spring. So far, the molecular mechanism of leaf color change in tree peony is unclear. In this study, the pigment level and transcriptome of three different color stages of tree peony leaf wer...

Leaf color change of variegated leaves from chimera species is regulated by fine-tuned molecular mechanisms. Hosta "Gold Standard" is a typical chimera Hosta species with golden-green variegated leaves, which is an ideal material to investigate the molecular mechanisms of leaf variegation. In this study, the margin and center regions of young and mature leaves from Hosta "Gold Standard", as wel...
