Allometric models for non-destructive leaf area estimation in Eugenia uniflora (L.)
We aimed to propose a reliable and accurate model using non-destructive measurements of leaf length (L) and/or width (W) for estimating leaf area (LA) of Surinam cherry (Eugenia uniflora L.). For model construction, 560 leaves were randomly sampled from different levels of the tree canopies and enco...
