Leaf edges show chlorosis starting from the tip due to lack of Chlorophyll. Affected leaves start falling and renew leaves masse as respond to stress conditions which also delay fruits maturation. Technological development in detecting the stress of high plants trough the leaf fluorescence and Chlorophyll concentration have led to the introduction of instruments which utilize fluorescence as a basis for determining stress level. The paper was aimed to show whether the productivity values calculated from Chlorophyll fluorescence Fv/Fm were comparable to those produced by spectrophotometric method in detecting Chlorophyll a concentration and SPAD values detected by Chlorophyll meter （SPAD-502）. Measurements of nitrogen content were also provided in order to obtain accuracy of SPAD meter since Chlorophyll molecules contain nitrogen in their structure. To test the relationship between these three technique regression relationship was obtained. Regression coefficient between Fv/Fm values and Chlorophyll a concentration mg g-t was high. Also, strong regression coefficient was observed between Chlorophyll a and SPAD values indicating a good accuracy of this device which was also confirmed by good regression between nitrogen content and SPAD values. Fluorometer measurements on injured leaves samples of apricot have also reviled the Fv/Fm values below 0.83 which is in according with numerous authors who considered a line for indicating stress factors.展开更多

[Method] Based on 34 Brassica napus L. varieties, SPAD value, chlorophyll content, agronomic characters, economic characters and yield traits were measured and re- gression functions were established according to correlations. [Result] SPAD value, chlorophyll content, agronomic and economic characters and yield traits all achieved significant level in differences among 34 varieties. Specifically, SPAD value was of extremely significant correlation with chlorophyll a and b, total chlorophyll and carotenoid, and the correlation from high to low was chl-b〉chl-z〉chl-a〉chl-x. SPAD value was of significantly positive correlation with total pod number per plant, plant height, seed number per pod, yield per plant and harvest yield, and of insignificant correlation with branch point height, effective branch number, pod density of main stem, and pod length. [Conclusion] It is simple and rapid to predict chlorophyll con- tent, economic characters and yields of Brassica napus L. with SPAD value and re- gression functions.展开更多

The results showed that under both high and ordinary nitrogen levels, high temperature stress reduced the seed-setting rate, yield per stem, SPAD value and soluble sugar content of Ganxin 203; under both high and ordinary tem- peratures, high nitrogen level increased the seed-setting rate, yield per stem and soluble sugar content of Ganxin 203; the seed-setting rate, yield per stem and yield per plant of Ganxin 203 under high temperature and high nitrogen level were higher than those under high temperature and ordinary nitrogen level. It suggests that ap- propriate high nitrogen level contributes to weakening the negative effects of high temperature stress on rice yield.展开更多

[Method] From 2008 to 2010, 18 mid-season hybrid rice vari- eties were researched every year to explore relationship＇ between SDIFHS and pro- ductivity of rice fertilized with nitrogen. [Result] The productivity of rice fertilized with nitrogen was of extremely significant positive corretation with SDIFHS, because the higher SPAD decline index is, the higher LAI decline index and the transformation ratio of dry matter to spikes in overground plant would be. [Conclusion] The re- search established a new method to predict productivity of rice fertilized with nitro- gen based on SPAD decline index.展开更多

With an equivalent yield, dry seeded flooded rice （DSR） has been considered as a replacement for traditional transplanted flooded rice （TFR）. However, the differences in leaf and root senescence during grain filling between DSR and TFR were seldom identified. In this study, the root length, root tip number and leaf senescence of rice varieties Huanghuazhan and Yangliangyou 6 during ripening were compared between DSR and TFR. Results showed that top three leaves in DSR had the characteristics of relatively lower SPAD value, lower N content and premature leaf senescence. In addition, both the total root length and total root tip number of DSR were significantly lower than those of TFR. In conclusion, premature and quick leaf senescence was related with inadequate root length and root tip number during ripening, which might result from the deficiency of nitrogen supply in DSR. Techniques on improving leaf nitrogen status and delaying the leaf senescence during grain-filling in DSR should be developed in future researches.展开更多
