Rapid field methods for estimating area, size, and thickness of four radish (Raphanus sativus L. var. sativus) cultivar leaves grown in controlled cabinets under varying temperatures and irrigation levels
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
Topsi, Famox F1, Corox F1, and Altox F1 radish cultivars grown in controlled 20 and 12oC cabinets and they subjected to 0, 33, 66, and 100% depletion of peat moss available water capacity (AWC). The objective of this experiment was to create equations for estimating area, size, and thickness of four radish cultivar leaves in response to varying temperatures and irrigation levels. The obtained results suggested that the following equations crated for estimation of leaf area, size and thickness: Leaf area (Cm2) = 3.951+ 0.6162 (L*W); Leaf area (Cm2) = 3.951+ 0.6162 (0.5 L2 π). Leaf size (cm3) = 0.2088 + 0.02095 (L*W); Leaf size (cm3) = 0.1644+ 0.08317 (0.5 L2 π). Leaf thickness (mm) = 0.3837 – 0.000296 (L*W); Leaf thickness (mm) = 0.3438 + 0.000232 (0.5 L2 π). Where L= leaf length, W= mid leaf width.
