We have developed a non-destructive, touch-free method for estimating leaf areas with a structured-light three-dimensional (3D) scanner. When the surfaces of soybean leaves were analyzed with both the 3D scanner and a leaf area meter, the results were linearly related ($R^2=0.90$). The strong correlation ($R^2=0.98$) was calculated between shoot fresh weights and leaf areas when the scanner was employed during growth stages V1 to V4. We also found that leaf areas measured by the scanner could be used to detect changes in growth responses to abiotic stress. Whereas under control conditions the areas increased over time, salt and drought treatments were associated with reductions in those values after 14 d and 12 d, respectively. Based on our findings, we propose that a structured-light 3D scanner can be used to obtain reliable estimates of leaf area and plant biomass.

잎의 생태 계절학적 변화는 지상의 탄소/질소 순환에 큰 영향을 미칠 뿐 아니라 토양 수분, 증발산과 같은 물 순환에 중요한 인자로 작용한다. 이를 모의하기 위하여 많은 지면-생태 생태모형들이 개발되어져 왔지만, 자연현상을 충분히 이해하지 못함으로 인하여 모델 결과값과 실제 관측 값에 차이가 발생된다. 이러한 한계점을 해결하기 위하여 실제 모형과 관측되어진 자료를 실시간으로 융합하는 자료동화 기법이 개발되어져 모델들의 오차를 줄여주거나, 실제 모델의 파라미터들을 보정하는데 사용되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지상기후모형인 Community Land Model(CLM)을 기반으로 하여 2003년부터 2010년까지 동아시아지역을 대상으로 연구를 진행하였다. 지면-대기-해양 모델로부터 발생되어진 40개의 앙상블 기상자료를 이용하여 도출된 잎면적 지수와 Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS) 잎면적 지수를 실시간으로 융합하는 앙상블 칼만 필터기법을 이용하여 잎면적지수 자료동화가 생태 생태 수문에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 특히 잎면적 지수 자료동화가 동아시아 지역의 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 1~3 m 의 토양수분의 변화를 이용하여 가뭄을 정의하였다. 이러한 토양수분 가뭄을 시 공간적으로 나타내어 동아시아지역의 가뭄의 기간, 심도 와 같은 가뭄을 특성을 이해하여 보고자 하였으며, 잎면적 지수 자료동화가 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다.

Non-destructive estimation of leaf area is a more efficient and convenient method than leaf excision. Thus, several models predicting leaf area have been developed for various horticultural crops. However, there are limited studies on estimating the leaf area of strawberry plants. In this study, we predicted the leaf areas via nonlinear regression analysis using the leaf lengths and widths of three-compound leaves in five domestic strawberry cultivars ('Arihyang', 'Jukhyang', 'Keumsil', 'Maehyang', and 'Seollhyang'). The coefficient of determination (R²) between the actual and estimated leaf areas varied from 0.923 to 0.973. The R² value varied for each cultivar; thus, leaf area estimation models must be developed for each cultivar. The leaf areas of the three cultivars 'Jukhyang', 'Seolhyang', and 'Maehyang' could be non-destructively predicted using the model developed in this study, as they had R² values over 0.96. The cultivars 'Arihyang' and 'Geumsil' had slightly low R² values, 0.938 and 0.923, respectively. The leaf area estimation model for each cultivar was coded in Python and is provided in this manuscript. The estimation models developed in this study could be used extensively in other strawberry-related studies.

Leaf characteristics of main stem and tiller of IK type maize (IK/ /IRI/B68) were compared with those of Jinjoo Ok hybrid which are not usually tillered. A total of nine leaves from flag leaf to the third or the fourth leaf below ear-bearing node were sampled from each stem or tiller. There was no significant difference in mean leaf length between IK/ /IRI/B68 and Jinjoo Ok. But the mean leaf width of IK/ /IRI/ B68 was about 2 cm narrower than that of Jinjoo Ok. The mean leaf area of the IK/ /IRI/B68 was also smaller than that of Jinjoo Ok due to the narrower leaf width. There were not significant differences in mean leaf characteristics between main stem and tillers of IK/IRI/B68. The longest leaf was the leaf below the ear-bearing node and the widest leaf was the leaf just above the ear-bearing node. Mean length. width and area of leaf on main stem and tillers were similar. Coefficients of variation calculated for individual leaf indicated that the leaves near the ear-bearing node were more uniform than others. The leaf area measured was significantly greater than that estimated by formular, length x width x 0.75. New constant to estimate leaf area of tillering maize was derived as 0.8.

A study was conducted to examine the leaf expansion forms and to analyze the leaf growth in early growing season of 1992 in a temperate deciduous forest in central region of Korea. After the winter bud scale fell off, the expansion forms of 11 woody species were divided into 3 groups, spreading fan form, opening form from half folding, and unrolling form from main vein. The ratios of leaf area at the end of growing season to that of leaf expantion time varied among species, and were related closely to expansion forms. The leaves reached to full size between the third ten days of April and the middle ten days of May, except for a few species. Leaf weight, however, increased steadily during the growing season. Specific leaf area (SLA) increased rapidly for 10-20 days after leaf expansion and decreased rapidly for 10 days after reaching maximum values, and thereafter decreased slowly. The SLA values of trees were smaller than $200cm^2/g$, but those of subtree and shrub were larger than $200cm^2/g$.

One of the most important factors in predicting tomato growth and yield is the leaf area. Estimating leaf area accurately is the beginning of an effective tomato plant growth assessment model. To this end, this study was conducted to identify the most effective model for estimating plant leaf area through the measurement of tomato plant leaves. Leaf area (LA), leaf length (L), leaf width (W), and lamina length (La) were measured for all leaves of 5 plants at two-week intervals. The correlation between LA and tomato-leaf-independent variables showed a strong positive relationship with the formulas La × W, L × W, La + W, and L + W. For LA estimation, a linear model using the formula LA = a + b (La² + W²) gave the most accurate estimation (R² = 0.867, RMSE = 88.76). After examining the positions of upper, middle, and lower leaves from September to December, the coefficient of determination (R²) values for each model were 0.878, 0.726, and 0.794 respectively. The most accurate estimation came from the model that used the upper leaves of the plants. The high accuracy of the upper-leaf-based model is judged by the 50% defoliation performed by farmers after October.

The leaf growth and physiological characteristics of Forsythia saxatilis were investigated under different relative light intensities (RLI) and fertilization levels in order to find out the optimum environmental conditions for in-situ restoration. RLI and fertilization were four levels (30%, 43%, 63% of full sun and full sun) and three levels (non-fertilization, 2 times and 3 times of average forest soil in Korea), respectively. According to the increase of fertilization level under all RLI, leaf area increased and leaf dry weight and the ratio of leaf dry weight to leaf area decreased. As the fertilization level increased, photosynthetic pigment contents such as chlorophyll a, b and carotenoid under all RLI decreased. And pigment contents were the highest under full sun in the same fertilization level. Foliar nitrogen content under fertilization was higher than that under non-fertilization, and chlorophyll/nitrogen ratio decreased with the increase of fertilization level under all RLI. The increase of photosynthetic rate was observed with the increase of fertilization level at 63% of RLI and full sun, and dark respiration rate under fertilization was lower than under non-fertilization. Apparent quantum yield was lower at non-fertilization than that of fertilization, and it was highest at 63% of RLI under the same fertilization level. In conclusion, leaf growth and physiological characteristics of F. saxatilis could be improved under higher light conditions and fertilization.

작물의 엽면적 등 다양한 생육정보를 간편하고 비파괴적으로 추정할 수 있다면 작물의 생리 생태학적 모델에의 적용을 통하여 다양한 작물 연구에 중요한 공헌을 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 오이 개개 잎의 형태정보를 이용하여 오이의 개개 엽면적, 생체중 및 건물중 예측하는 것을 목적으로 하였고, 이를 위하여 엽면적은 5가지 모델을 사용하였고, 생체중 및 건물중은 6가지의 모델을 사용하여 분석하였다. 또한 신경회로망은 3 layer의 back propagation method를 사용하여 분석하였다. 각 모델들은 독립변수로는 Robinson ＆ Pharr이 사용한 개개 잎의 폭 및 길이를 사용하였다. 회귀모델에 의한 추정 결과, 모델의 정확성 및 정밀성은 엽면적 > 생체중 > 건물중 순 이었지만, 특히 건물중의 경우는 상대적으로 낮은 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 회귀모델을 사용하여 건물중 추정하는 것에는 한계가 있는 것으로 생각되며, 신경회로망도 이와 유사한 관계를 나타냈지만 다양한 변수 수정을 통하여 상관계수를 증가시킬 수 있을 것이라고 생각된다.

To elucidate effects of air pollutants on ecophysiological properties of two Quercus mongolica stands at different levels of air pollution, photosynthetic capacity and chloroplast pigment were measured in leaves of Q. mongolica. Photosynthetic capacity, photosynthetic pigment content and SLA (specific leaf area) of Q. mongolica leaves in polluted area were lower than those in nonpolluted area. Also, the chlorosis and mottling in some of leaves were observed in polluted area after August. Except for total carotenoid (P<0.05) the correlations between photosynthetic capacity and pigment content were not significant. Photosynthetic capacity of Q. mongolica leaves in polluted area was decreased after July.
