Fig. 1. Relationship between leaf color chart (LCC) scores and leaf N concentrations per unit dry weight (Ndw) at panicle initiation (PI), 9 d after PI (PI + 9 d), and flowering (FL) in the wet season (WS) of 2000 and at midtillering (MT), PI, and FL in the dry season (DS) of 2001 across three cultivars and four N rate treatments. Leaf color charts were developed by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI); Zhejiang Agricultural University (ZAU), China; and the University of California, Davis (UCD), USA.

Fig. 2. Relationship between leaf color chart (LCC) scores adjusted for specific leaf weight (SLW) and leaf N concentration per unit dry weight (Ndw) at panicle initiation (PI), 9 d after PI (PI + 9 d), and flowering (FL) in the wet season (WS) of 2000 and at midtillering (MT), PI, and FL in the dry season (DS) of 2001 across three cultivars and four N rate treatments.

Relationship between leaf color chart (LCC) scores and leaf N content per unit area (Na) at panicle initiation (PI), 9 d after PI (PI + 9 d), and flowering (FL) in the wet season (WS) of 2000 and at midtillering (MT), PI, and FL in the dry season (DS) of 2001 across three cultivars and four N rate treatments.
