ABSTRACT

We developed linear equations to predict the leaf area (LA) of the species Styrax pohlii and Styrax ferrugineus using the width (W) and length (L) leaf dimensions. For both species the linear regression (Y=α+bX) using LA as a dependent variable vs. W × L as an independent variable was more efficient than linear regressions using L, W, L2 and W2 as independent variables. Therefore, the LA of S. pohlii can be estimated with the equation LA=0.582+0.683WL, while the LA of S. ferrugineus follows the equation LA=−0.666+0.704WL.


Foram determinadas equações lineares para estimar a área foliar (AF) de Styrax pohlii e Styrax ferrugineus utilizando dimensões do limbo foliar (C – comprimento, L – largura). O modelo linear (Y=α+bX), utilizando AF vs. C × L, foi mais eficiente que os modelos lineares utilizando C, L, C2 e L2 como variáveis independentes na determinação da área foliar de S. pohlii e S. ferrugineus. Assim, a AF de S. pohlii pode ser estimada pelo modelo AF=0,582+0,683CL e a AF de S. ferrugineus pode ser estimada pelo modelo AF=−0,666+0,704CL.
