摘要
Potato leaf morphology changes during plant development with the phase shift from vegetative growth to flowering. Image analysis can detect differences in leaf morphology and has been used here to distinguish differences in leaf morphology between potato crops derived from seed tubers and minitubers and between crops derived from different micropropagation protocols. Further, leaf shape parameters can be used to determine the relative maturity of crops. This finding is of economic importance since differences in plant development, for example delayed flowering, are associated with yield parameters. It is hypothesised that image analysis of established microplants can be used as an early evaluation of micropropagation protocols for potato.
