Abstract: In order to establish the estimate model of chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a of tomato leaf,tomato variety Jinfen 2 was taken as test material,four soil water treatments were conducted in all growth stages in greenhouse of Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology from March to July,2013,and another repeat experiment was conducted from August to December,2013.The experimental data during March to July was used to establish estimate model of chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a,while another one was used to test the model.The soil water content was divided into four levels:control(75% to 80% of field water holding capacity),light drought treatment(LT,55% to 60% of field water holding capacity),moderate drought treatment(MT,40% to 45% of field water holding capacity),and severe drought treatment(ST,25% to 30% of field water holding capacity).Tomato canopy spectral reflectance of each growth period under each water treatments were determined by using ASD portable spectroradiometer(US),at the same time,chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a content of leaf were also determined.Then by fitting a variety of common hyperspectral vegetation index models between canopy reflectance and chlorophyll relationships,four models for chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a content of tomato were established.The results showed that water stress caused chlorophyll(a+b),chlorophyll a and canopy spectral reflectance significantly decrease,moreover,their decrease trend increased with the increased degree of water stress in all the growth stages.With the advancing of tomato growth stage,both chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a were increasing,while the canopy spectral reflectance decreased in red and blue band wavelength.By comparing the effect of four models,R670 model was the best for chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a content estimate.Therefore,chlorophyll(a+b)and chlorophyll a content estimate model were established as follows:Cchl(a+b)=44.83R670+7.36,Cchla=39.92R670+5.12.Both of them passed the 0.01 significance level test,and their root mean square error(RMSE)were 0.45,0.42mg·g-1 respectively.Therefore,the way of using hyperspectral remote sensing data to estimate the chlorophyll content of tomato leaves was feasible.
