Other claims from this paper (5)
- Method / resource Total leaf length explained 75% of tomato leaf-area variance.
- Observation Rachis-to-distal-petiole length had the same variance as total length.
- Method / resource Leaf width accounted for 90% of leaf-area variance and estimated area better.
- Method / resource Using both length and width did not further improve estimation.
- Method / resource Length- or width-based estimation was robust across growing system, nutrient-solution salinity and measurement date.
