Popis: A linear regression equation is found relating the photosynthetically active radiation intercepted by the canopy (PARi), measured with hemispherical photographs, and both the normalized difference ND and the ratio NIR/R vegetation indices. On the basis of this equation, NIR/R is used to estimate PARi during the crop cycle. The efficiency with which the PAR absorbed by the crop is transformed into biomass (ϵc) is calculated for three phenological phases of the crop. Nitrogen fertilization is the main factor affecting light interception. At the booting stage, PARi is about 15 per cent greater for treatments with higher nitrogen levels. ϵc is influenced by both nitrogen and irrigation levels, and varies with the phenological phases of the crop. For the irrigated plots, ϵc is higher in the period going from anthesis to soft dough and not in the period from stem elongation to anthesis as most published results indicate. Water stress is the main factor affecting ϵc. The greatest reductions of ;ϵc are o...
