Abstract The relative chlorophyll content in leaves estimated by the SPAD‐502 chlorophyll meter can be an efficient way to evaluate plant nitrogen (N) status in many crops and some tree species. In this study, the SPAD meter was used to look for relationships between relative leaf chlorophyll content and leaf nutrient concentration in trembling aspen. The variations in leaf chlorophyll measurements were also evaluated by using three sampling times and three measurement techniques. Hypothetical experimental designs were created to achieve better design efficiency. The best representation of overall leaf chlorophyll was found when six SPAD readings were taken at different locations on each leaf. There was a positive correlation between overall leaf N and estimated chlorophyll content, especially in the top part of the trees. Overall, this study suggested that the SPAD meter can give an estimation of trembling aspen nutritional status, especially if the differential partitioning of N within trees is considered. 相似文献

Abstract The SPAD‐502 chlorophyll meter was evaluated as a rapid tool to predict plant nitrogen (N) concentration. The SPAD‐502 index utility, as a comparative tool with respect to N nutritional status, was evaluated for Laurustine (Viburnum tinus L.), tobir (Pittosporum tobira Thumb.), and strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo L.). The effect of sampling time on the SPAD‐502 index measures was also evaluated. Two sand culture experiments evaluating 1, 3, 5, and 7 mmolc · L?1 of total N concentration in nutrient solution and 70/30, 50/50, 40/60, and 30/70% nitrate/ammonium (NO3 ?/NH4 +) ratios were applied. In a media experiment, with similar conditions and fertilization, the accuracy of the SPAD‐502 regression data was evaluated. Leaf, root, and sap samples were taken in the middle and at the end of each experiment. Regression equations were established among leaf N, root N, of sap N analyzed concentrations and SPAD values with regard to global, as well as specific, data within each sampling time. Regression coefficients (b) among leaf N and SPAD were highly significant (P<0.05) for practically all sampling times. However, liner regression equations were different in all treatments among all the sampling dates. Determination coefficients (R2), in some cases, show that the SPAD‐502 index is not an adequate method for leaf, root, or sap N concentration fir Viburnum tinus L. and Pittosporum tobira Thumb. or for root or sap for Arbutus unedo L. in these experimental conditions. Nonetheless, the SPAD‐502 index could be a useful tool for relative comparison purposes and field operational nutrient management. However, the SPAD‐502 leaf greenness meter is a relatively good tool for leaf N and nutritional diagnosis for Arbutus unedo L. within the 38–66 SPAD‐502 index range. 相似文献

Knowing actual nutrient requirements for rice plants is crucial in supplying the correct amount of fertilizer, especially nitrogen since nitrogen is one of the most key limiting nutrients in rice cultivation. A preliminary study of variable rate application (VRA) on System of Rice Intensification (SRI) planting by using organic foliar fertilizer was carried out to determine the effectiveness of precision fertilization. Foliar fertilizer was formulated based on actual nitrogen needed by rice plants using Soil-Plant Analyses Development (SPAD) chlorophyll meter measurements. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four treatments (50% fixed rate, 100% fixed rate, 150% fixed rate and VRA) and four replications for each treatment. Plant growth performances (plant heights, number of tillers, number of panicle and flower) and yield performances (grain yield, number of grain, 1000-grain weight and number of spikelets) were recorded during the study. The results showed that foliar application of VRA resulted in significantly higher yield performances; grain yield (13.65 g), number of grain (807.50), 1000-grain weight (16.79 g), and number of spikelets (7.50) compared to uniform fertilizer applications. VRA treatments had the highest SPAD readings at every planting stage during the experiment; however, a high nitrogen supply was needed during the mid-tillering stages (35 DAT) compared to other fertilizer rates. Besides, VRA application shows the most savings in term of total nitrogen supply (415 µg) compared to uniform rates application; 50% fixed rate (400 µg), 100% fixed rate (810 µg), and 150% fixed rate (1210 µg). 相似文献

The critical leaf and the threshold values of leaf color chart (LCC) and chlorophyll meter (SPAD‐502) for cassava have been evaluated. The nitrogen (N) rates and cultivars had a significant effect on LCC score, SPAD values, and leaf N concentration of leaf 1 in most cases. Among the three leaf positions studied, the youngest fully expanded leaf (YFEL) blade (leaf 1) had significant, positive correlation of tuber yield with LCC score, SPAD value, and leaf N concentration. The regression between LCC score and leaf N concentration of leaf 1 was LCC = 0.358 (Leaf N) + 0.78 (r2 = 0.81) and that between LCC score and SPAD value was SPAD = 10.981 (LCC) – 3.51 (r2 = 0.82). A threshold LCC score of 2.65 and threshold SPAD value of 25 were suitable to determine the optimal timing of N top‐dressing for cassava. 相似文献
