Title: Relationship between Watermelon Seed Yield and Leaf Area Index and Leaf Number per Plant
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to determine the relationship between leaf area and leaf length×width,and the relationship between seed yield and leaf area index and number of leaf per plant in watermelon. The results showed that the leaf area was highly correlated with leaf length×leaf width with correlation coefficient 0.971. Watermelon seed yield was highly related with leaf area index in a certain range,seed yield reached maximum at leaf area index 1.8. The number of leaf per plant can be estimated based on the optimum leaf area index.
