Temperature is one of the main environmental factors that affect plant metabolism.
Considering that plants are sessile, their survival depends on the efficient activation of …

Infrared thermography is a non-invasive technique that measures mid to long-wave infrared
radiation emanating from all objects and converts this to temperature. As an imaging …

Remote sensing is becoming an increasingly important tool for agriculturalists, ecologists,
and land managers for the study of Earth's agricultural and natural vegetation, and can be …

Imaging methods are giving new insights into plant freezing and the consequent damage
that affects survival and distribution of both wild and crop plants. Ice can enter plants through …

The above-ground surfaces of plants (the phyllosphere) harbour a diverse variety of
microorganisms, and this phyllosphere microbiome interacts with the host plant affecting its …

Infrared thermography transforms the thermal energy, emitted by objects in the infrared band
of the electromagnetic spectrum, into a visible image. This feature represents a great …

This paper describes a new approach to the calibration of thermal infrared measurements of
leaf temperature for the estimation of stomatal conductance and illustrates its application to …

Freeze injury is one of the main limiting factors to crop production and distribution of
horticultural crops. Despite the numerous research efforts devoted to reduce freezing injury …

The decrease in chlorophyll fluorescence caused by photoprotective thermal dissipation of
absorbed light energy. This parameter is calculated as (Fm, where Fm is the fluorescence …
