Development of an Open-Source Thermal Image Processing Software for Improving Irrigation Management in Potato Crops (Solanum tuberosum L.)
(2020)
Accurate determination of plant water status is mandatory to optimize irrigation scheduling
and thus maximize yield. Infrared thermography (IRT) can be used as a proxy for detecting
stomatal closure as a measure of plant ...
Canopy chlorophyll fluorescence applied to stress detection using an easy-to-build micro-lidar
(Springer Link, 2019)
LEDFLEX is a micro-lidar dedicated to the measurement of vegetation fluorescence. The light source consists of 4 blue Light-Emitting Diodes (LED) to illuminate part of the canopy in order to average the spatial variability ...
Radiation Interception, Conversion and Partitioning Efficiency in Potato Landraces: How Far Are We from the Optimum?
(MDPI, Basel (Switzerland), 2020-06)
Crop efficiencies associated with intercepted radiation, conversion into biomass and allocation to edible organs are essential for yield improvement strategies that would enhance geneticproperties to maximize carbon gain ...
Estimación de las concentraciones relativas de clorofila en foliolos de papa (solanum tuberosum l.) utilizando técnicas de reflectancia de la vegetación
(2023-01-06)
La cantidad de energía solar absorbida por una hoja es en gran parte función de la concentración foliar de los pigmentos fotosintéticos. Por lo tanto, bajas concentraciones de clorofila pueden limitar el potencial fotosintético ...
Development of low-cost remote sensing tools and methods for supporting smallholder agriculture
(Springer Link, 2019)
Agricultural UAV-based remote sensing tools to facilitate decision-making for increasing productivity in developing countries were developed and tested. Specifically, a high-quality multispectral sensor and sophisticated ...
Quantifying soil carbon stocks and humification through spectroscopic methods: A scoping assessment in EMBU-Kenya
(ELSEVIER, 2019)
A soil carbon assessment was performed comparing agricultural cropping systems with natural vegetation along a sampling transect spanning different agro-ecologies on the eastern foot slopes of Mount Kenya in Embu county, ...
Unraveling Ecophysiological Mechanisms in Potatoes under Different Irrigation Methods: A Preliminary Field Evaluation
(2020)
Potatoes—a global food security and staple crop—is threatened by dry spells in drought-prone areas. The use of physiological thresholds to save water while maintaining a reasonable tuber yield has been proposed, but their ...
