Leaf Area and Necrosis Measurement Protocol

Leaf area was measured by a leaf area meter (ADC Bioscientific, UK). The number of plant leaves and the number of necrosed leave were counted and the percentage of necrosed leaves were calculated. For measurement of specific leaf mass (SLM), 15 leaf discs with 5.0 mm diameter were dried at 70 °C for 72 h and their dry mass was measured. The SLM was calculated according to the following equation (Eq. 1). SLM=DrymassofleafdiscsAreaofleafdiscs

Apricot Seedling Growth Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Apricot seedlings were harvested on July, 2011, July, 2013, and July, 2015. Seedling size, biomass, and growth were determined as follows: the total shoot height and root collar diameter were measured using a graduated meter and digital caliper, respectively. The number of fully developed leaves was assessed to determine the effect of shade on seedling development, and leaf surface area was measured using a leaf area meter (ADC Bio-Scientific). Apricot seedlings were excavated and divided into coarse or fine roots, stems, and leaves. Subsequently, raw materials were oven-dried at 75 °C to a constant weight, and the corresponding dry mass was measured and averaged. Finally, mass fractions of apricot seedling leaves, stems, fine (\ 2 mm in diameter) and coarse ([ 2 mm in diameter) roots [(dry massÁdry plant mass -1 , g g -1 )], leaf area ratio [leaf area (cm 2 )Áplant dry mass -1 (g -1 )], specific leaf area [leaf area (cm 2 )Áleaf dry mass -1 (g -1 )] and root/shoot ratio were calculated according to the Hunt's (1997) method (Hunt and Cornelissen 1997) (link). The total root length was estimated using the gridline intersection method (Tennant 1975) (link).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
