| Publisher Description: Literature Review from the year 2014 in the subject Biology - Ecology, Moscow State Pedagogical University (Inst. Biol. Chem.), language: English, abstract: A novel hybrid method for direct auxanometric measurements is proposed, which allows to analyze plant growth dynamics at different developmental stages. The above measurements include long-term monitoring using optical analysis with direct mass spectroscopic and gas chromatographic detection. Based on the known flavor differences оf blooming plants at various phenological stages, we propose to distinguish between phenological stage dynamics of various plant species and groups according to modern trends in flavor chemistry. It is possible to perform a simultaneous chemical analysis and automatic classification of forest plants in model plant communities according to their phenorhythm types and phenological groups with the approach described using automatic pattern recognition and MS fingerprinting. The novel method can also provide phenospectral data ranging useful for establishing the dependence of plant growth and developmental stage phenology on the environmental factors. Since the method is based on combination of several different measurement sources, it is standardless, and thus possesses a wide application in laboratory climatic chambers as well as in natural field conditions with the equipment placed in Stevenson screen (meteorological instrument shelter) like the abundant tools for meteo-climatic monitoring. |
