A nondestructive method for continuously monitoring plant growth
1Complex Systems Research Center, University of New Hampshire, Durham 03824, USA.
Abstract:
In the past, plant growth generally has been measured using destructive methods. This paper describes a nondestructive technique for continuously monitoring plant growth. The technique provides a means of directly and accurately measuring plant growth over both short and long time intervals. Application of this technique to the direct measurement of plant growth rates is illustrated using corn (Zea mays L.) as an example.
