Description

Quantitative data are currently extremely limited regarding diagnosing vitality of Prunus jamasakura. It is a reason of inadequate management of unhealthy trees at many places. Therefore a study to obtain candidates of indices for diagnosing Prunus jamasakura was conducted as the first stage of the diagnosis system development. Various indices were compared between excellent and declined trees at two sites in Kyoto city. As a result, there were significant differences between excellent and declined trees in chlorophyll meter values, bud scale-scars, daily differences of sap wood temperature, leaf areas and net photosynthetic rates at saturation. Additionally, it was indicated that heat pulse velocity and stem growth which can be automatically and continuously measured were also likely to be the candidates of effective diagnostic indices.
