Spectral Leaf Measurements (CI‑710s) for Nutrient Deficiency Detection in Lettuce
Spectral leaf measurements are becoming a practical, field-ready approach for identifying nutrient deficiencies in lettuce before visible symptoms reduce yield or quality. Lettuce responds quickly to changes in nitrogen, magnesium, iron, and other nutrients, and those responses show up in leaf optical properties long before chlorosis or stunting becomes obvious. With the CI-710s SpectraVue Leaf… Continue reading…

Measuring Heat Stress on Forest Trees
The impact of high temperatures directly and alone on trees is significant without the associated drought. Heat effects are recorded at cellular, leaf, and tree levels, inhibiting tree growth and productivity or even mortality. More research is necessary to fully understand the effects of heat stress, which must be supported by on-site, non-destructive data collection… Continue reading…
Plant Responses to Heat Stress
Heat stress affects crop development, growth, and productivity. Plants have adaptive responses for either avoidance or tolerance of heat stress. The plant responds to heat, which can be molecular, biochemical, cellular, physiological, and morphological, and is being used by scientists to develop new cultivars for the future. The increase in temperature due to climate change… Continue reading…
Challenges of Cold Stress in Rice: the Impact of Technology
A team of dedicated scientists led by Árpád Székely, Tímea Szalóki, Mihály Jancsó, János Pauk, and Csaba Lantos set out to understand the effects of cold stress on rice seedlings. The challenge was significant. Cold stress is a major factor affecting the growth and productivity of rice, a staple food for more than half of… Continue reading…
