Effect of measure units on estimating crop LEAF chlorophyll content with remote sensing
Vegetation chlorophyll content is very important for monitoring the growth and health status of vegetation. Remote sensing of chlorophyll content holds an important potential for evaluating crop growth status and diseases and insects.

Genetic segregation of chlorophyll content and light compensation point in a hybrid grapevine population [PDF]
[Objective] The growth and development of grapes are closely linked to light intensity. The efficiency of photosynthesis and nutrient accumulation directly affects grape yield and quality. In greenhouse or protected cultivation environments, grape growth

Genetic mapping of physiological traits associated with terminal stage drought tolerance in rice
Background Drought during reproductive stage is among the main abiotic stresses responsible for drastic reduction of grain yield in rainfed rice. The genetic mechanism of reproductive stage drought tolerance is very complex.

Vertical distributions of chlorophyll in deep, warm monomictic lakes [PDF]
The factors affecting vertical distributions of chlorophyll fluorescence were examined in four temperate, warm monomictic lakes. Each of the lakes (maximum depth >80 m) was sampled over 2 years at intervals from monthly to seasonal.

REACTIVITY OF CHLOROPHYLL a/b-PROTEINS AND MICELLAR TRITON X-100 COMPLEXES OF CHLOROPHYLLS a OR b WITH BOROHYDRIDE [PDF]
The reaction of several plant chlorophyll-protein complexes with NaBH4 has been studied by absorption spectroscopy. In all the complexes studied, chlorophyll b is more reactive than Chi a, due to preferential reaction of its formyl substituent at C-7 ...

Cloning and characterisation of chlorophyll synthase from Avena sativa [PDF]
The chlorophyll synthase gene from oat (Avena sativa) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The deduced amino acid sequence consists of 378 amino acids including a presequence, of 46 amino acids.

SPAD-502 readings in response to photon fluence in leaves with different chlorophyll content
The chlorophyll meter (SPAD-502) is widely used to estimate chlorophyll content, but non-uniform chloroplast distribution can affect its accuracy. This study aimed to assess the effect of photon fluence (F, irradiance x time of illumination) in leaves ...

The derivation of the formyl-group oxygen of chlorophyll b in higher plants from molecular oxygen. [PDF]
The mechanism of formation of the formyl group of chlorophyll b has long been obscure but, in this paper, the origin of the 7-formyl-group oxygen of chlorophyll b in higher plants was determined by greening etiolated maize leaves, excised from dark-grown

Spectral response of chlorophyll content during leaf senescence in European beech trees [PDF]
Leaf chlorophyll content declines in response to environmental stressors and during natural senescence periods. Assessments of forest health and vulnerability to stressors require repeated measurements of forest health to quantify declines in chlorophyll
