Estimate of soybean defoliation via digital image processing in software [PDF]
This study aimed to develop and validate the digital image processing software to quantify leaf coverage, employing the correlation of defoliation values and NDVI with various gradients of defoliation severity of the Asian soybean rust pathosystem.

Effects of Severity of Defoliation on Root Functioning in Grasses [PDF]
Grass shoots after defoliation can be supplied with the nitrogen required for regrowth by either root uptake or remobilization of stores. Whilst it is accepted that after a single defoliation inhibition of root uptake and remobilization from root occurs, it has not been established how the capability of roots to supply nitrogen by uptake and from ...

The effect of defoliation on the 3-isobutyl-2-methoxypyrazine biosynthesis in wine grapes
Field studies were conducted on Vitis vinifera cv. 'Cabernet Sauvignon' to evaluate the effects of the defoliation time (pre- and post-flowering and veraison) and severity on the 3-isobutyl-2-methoxypyrazine (IBMP) concentration and expression levels of ...

Does the type of silvicultural practice influence spruce budworm defoliation of seedlings?
Spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana (Clem)) is the main defoliator in the boreal forest of North America, and its outbreaks have major ecological and economic consequences and represent a challenge for forest management.

Effects of Rest following Defoliations on the Recovery of Several Range Species [PDF]
Highlight: Seven range species, western wheatgrass (Agropyron smithii), blue grama (Bouteloua grucilis), fourwing saltbush (Atriplex cunescens), antelope bitterbrush (Purshia tridenfufu), fringed sagewort (Atiemisiafrigidu), scarlet globemallow (Sphuerukeu coccineu), and little rabbitbrush (Chrysothumnus vicidi&rus) were heavily defoliated once to ...

Defoliation dynamics of Brachiaria brizantha pastures with distinct structural characteristics
Although belonging to the same species, different Brachiaria brizantha varieties used for pasture vary significantly in their morphological structure.

Grapevine canopy defoliation is a fundamentally important technique for the productivity and quality of grapes. Leaf removal is a pivotal operation on high-density vines which aims to improve air circulation, light exposure, and leaf gas exchange.

Root production in a subtropical pasture is mediated by cultivar identity and defoliation severity
Grasslands occupy significant land area and account for a large proportion of the global soil carbon stocks, yet the direct effects of grazing and genotypic composition on relationships between shoot and root production are poorly resolved. This lack of understanding hinders the development of models for predicting root production in managed grasslands,

Variation of Stem Radius in Response to Defoliation in Boreal Conifers
In the long term, defoliation strongly decreases tree growth and survival. Insect outbreaks are a typical cause of severe defoliation. Eastern spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana Clem.) outbreaks are one of the most significant disturbances of Picea
