High-Resolution and Non-destructive Evaluation of the Spatial Distribution of Nitrate and Its Dynamics in Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) Leaves by Near-Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging
Nitrate is an important component of the nitrogen cycle and is therefore present in all plants.However, excessive nitrogen fertilization results in a high nitrate content in vegetables, which is unhealthy for humans.Understanding the spatial distribution of nitrate in leaves is beneficial for improving nitrogen assimilation efficiency and reducing
