Abstract

Bitkilerin alanının belirlenmesinde kullanılan basit, doğru ve bitkiye zarar vermeyen yöntemler, birçok deneysel karşılaştırmada önemli yer tutmaktadır. Karanfil bitkisinin (Dianthus caryophyllos L.) yaprak alanının (LA) belirlenmesi, yaprak eni ve boyunun ölçülmesine dayanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada kullanılan veriler sera koşullarında yetiştirilen iki farklı karanfil çeşidinden deneme sonunda alınmıştır. Araştırmanın temel amacı karanfil bitkisinin yaprak alanının tahmininde kullanılabilecek en doğru yöntemi belirlemektir. Belirlenen yöntemlerle yaprak alanı, bitkiye zarar vermeden ve pahalı aletler kullanmadan tahmin edilebilecektir. Aynı zamanda yetiştirme sezonu boyunca aynı yaprak üzerinde ölçümlerin alınması da mümkün olabilecektir

NON-DESTRUCTIVE LEAF AREA ESTIMATION IN CARNATION PLANTS

Abstract

Simple, accurate, and nondestructive methods of determining leaf area of plants are important for many experimental comparisons. Determining individual leaf area (LA) of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllos L.) can involve measuring leaf length (L) and width (W). Data were collected from experiments of two carnation cultivars grown under greenhouse condition at the end of the experiment. The objective of this field study was to determine the most precise model to predict the area of individual leaves of carnation plants. With these models, estimating carnation leaf area could be done without the use of expensive instruments and destructing the leaves of the plant. It is also possible to carry out the measurements on the same leaves throughout the growing period.
