Question

State four indice that can be use to measure plants growth giving examples of the plant part to which each is applicable?

Answer 1

Answer:

what you mentioned are not growth measurements. They are biometric measurements. Growth can be measrued in terms of several indices like relative growth rate (RGR), Leaf area ratio (LAR), Leaf weight ratio (LWR), Lead area duration (LAD), Specific lead area (SLA), Specific leaf weight (SLW), Absolute growth rate ( AGR), Net assimilation ratio ( NAR), Crop growth rate (CGR) etc. These however are not new. these are the ways in which growth can be measured apart from the increase in the biometric characters that were mentioned in the question.
