IMAGE-PROCESSING ON MORPHOLOGICAL TRAITS OF GRAPE GERMPLASM

The methods of image processing of grape plants was developed to make the description of morphological traits more accurate and effective. A plant image was taken with a still video camera and displayed through a digital to analog conversion. A high-quality image was obtained by 500 TV pieces as a horizontal resolution, and in particular, the degree of density of prostrate hairs between mature leaf veins (lower surface). The analog image was stored in an optical disk to preserve semipermanently without loss of quality. However, the analog processed image was shown to be inadequate in retrieval and image analysis, and a revision of the data management system should be required.
