“…To balance the adverse effects of stomatal closure to limit carbon dioxide absorption, the chlorophyll content of the upper leaves increased compared with normal culture. This result is consistent with the conclusions in the literature [33,34].…”

As global temperatures warm, drought reduces plant yields and is one of the most serious abiotic stresses causing plant losses. The early identification of plant drought is of great significance for making improvement decisions in advance. Chlorophyll is closely related to plant photosynthesis and nutritional status. By tracking the changes in chlorophyll between plant strains, we can identify the impact of drought on a plant’s physiological status, efficiently adjust the plant’s ecosystem adaptability, and achieve optimization of planting management strategies and resource utilization efficiency. Plant three-dimensional reconstruction and three-dimensional character description are current research hot spots in the development of phenomics, which can three-dimensionally reveal the impact of drought on plant structure and physiological phenotypes. This article obtains visible light multi-view images of four poplar varieties before and after drought. Machine learning algorithms were used to establish the regression models between color vegetation indices and chlorophyll content. The model, based on the partial least squares regression (PLSR), reached the best performance, with an R2 of 0.711. The SFM-MVS algorithm was used to reconstruct the plant’s three-dimensional point cloud and perform color correction, point cloud noise reduction, and morphological calibration. The trained PLSR chlorophyll prediction model was combined with the point cloud color information, and the point cloud color was re-rendered to achieve three-dimensional digitization of plant chlorophyll content. Experimental research found that under natural growth conditions, the chlorophyll content of poplar trees showed a gradient distribution state with gradually increasing values from top to bottom; after being given a short period of mild drought stress, the chlorophyll content accumulated. Compared with the value before stress, it has improved, but no longer presents a gradient distribution state. At the same time, after severe drought stress, the chlorophyll value decreased as a whole, and the lower leaves began to turn yellow, wilt and fall off; when the stress intensity was consistent with the duration, the effect of drought on the chlorophyll value was 895 < SY-1 < 110 < 3804. This research provides an effective tool for in-depth understanding of the mechanisms and physiological responses of plants to environmental stress. It is of great significance for improving agricultural and forestry production and protecting the ecological environment. It also provides decision-making for solving plant drought problems caused by global climate change.

“…The focus of our study was to evaluate the levels of photosynthetic pigments, particularly chlorophylls, to gauge the impact of progressive dehydration on the photosynthetic apparatus. While some plants exhibit substantial declines in chlorophyll and carotenoid levels under drought stress (Mibei et al 2016 ; Raja et al 2020 ), variations in chlorophyll and carotenoid responses are influenced by plant sensitivity to drought stress (Rustioni and Bianchi 2021 ). Interestingly, some instances, such as water stress in tataricum buckwheat, can lead to augmented chlorophyll content (Aubert and Quinet 2022 ).…”

The present study investigates the biochemical responses of buckwheat to drought stress, particularly focusing on phenolic acids and flavonoids, abundant in this crop. We hypothesize that distinct genotypic responses to drought stress will lead to variations in phenolic acid accumulation. Two common buckwheat cultivars, Panda (East European origin) and PI 482597 (originating from Zimbabwe), were subjected to drought treatment, with biochemical traits, relative water content, and photosynthetic pigments regularly assessed. While chlorophyll content remained unaffected by dehydration, total carotenoid content decreased. The unique increase in the chlorophyll to carotenoid ratio suggests a specific role of carotenoids in buckwheat's metabolic stress response. While most phenolic acids and flavonoids exhibited increasing trends during progressive dehydration, their dynamics differed. Notably, rutin content increased early in drought stress, while chlorogenic acid and kaempferol showed enhanced levels only under severe dehydration. Genotypic differences were observed in chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, and quercetin. Conversely, trans-p-coumaric acid, trans-ferulic acid, vanillic acid, rutin, and kaempferol showed similar trends in both cultivars. By aligning observed drought-induced changes in phenolic compound contents with biosynthesis pathways, trade-offs between individual compounds were identified, contributing to the mechanistic understanding of varied stress responses.

“…In this case, it may be possible that the temperature between 18 and 22 • C caused a higher stomatal conductance. A high water deficit can also modify the concentrations of chlorophyll and carotenoids [62,63]. A reduced chlorophyll content was found in several ornamental species, such as Catharanthus roseus, Helianthus annuus or Vaccinium myrtillus, grown in severe water stress conditions, but an increase in chlorophyll content was observed in plants under moderate water stress conditions [29,64,65].…”

Development of an Algorithm to Indicate the Right Moment of Plant Watering Using the Analysis of Plant Biomasses Based on Dahlia × hybrida

Water management in agriculture and horticulture has a strong ecological importance related to the necessity of optimizing the use of water resources. To achieve sustainable water use, it is necessary to optimize the time, frequency and the methods of water application. In this study, we hypothesized that the right moment for watering may be established on the grounds of the observation of the physiological state of the plant (if the plant is still in turgor) and the biomass of plant and the substrate. The proper irrigation scheduling, that is, just before the plant loses turgor, which appears at ca. 73% of LRWC in dahlias, determined with the use of the proposed measurement and computing system, makes it possible to save ca. 30% of irrigation water, in comparison to standard watering. Controlled watering also affected plant growth parameters, such as the content of chlorophyll a and b and carotenoid, as well as total and reducing sugar content (ca. 7%, 9% and 23% more than in plants watered in a standard way, respectively). Plants watered in a controlled way were 12% more compact when compared with the ones watered in a standard way. The results clearly proved that the computing system connected to scales made it possible to save water used for irrigation without a negative impact on the parameters of plant growth.
