Regression analysis revealed a strong relationship between the SPAD estimate and leaf transmittance and absorptance. The reflectance relationship, although still present, was not as accurate. The study indicates that the SPAD meter could be used to provide a rapid estimate of leaf absorbance and ...
The responses of seeds to light irradiation are dependent on the light transmittance of seed coat, intensity of light and duration of exposure, which is the function of wavelength and energy dose [8,23,47]. Generally, all the biological, chemical and physical phenomena lead to thermal changes ...
