Models for estimating yacon leaf area

Abstract: The recent exploration of yacon demands scientific information for improving the crop production technology. This study aimed to set a leaf area estimate model for yacon plants, using non-destructive measurements of leaf length (L) and/or width (W). Sixty-four representative yacon plants were randomly selected in an experimental field during the full vegetative growth. One thousand leaves of various sizes were taken from those plants for setting and validating a model. The logarithmic model best fitted this pu… Show more

“…The leaf length was measured with a meter rule in centimeters along the midrib, from the base to apex excluding the petiole and leaf width in centimeters was measured perpendicular to the midrib from one end of the leaf to the other. The readings obtained were then used to estimate the leaf area by applying [7] equation. Where, L is the leaf length and W is the width.…”

“…The leaf area was estimated according to the model of indirect determination (AF CL = (-27.7418 + (3.9812CL/ln CL) proposed by Erlacher et al (2016) by measuring the width and length of each leaf. The diameter of the shoots was measured using a digital caliper.…”
