Description

The Carotenoid Reflectance Index 550 (CRI550) was developed by Gitelson et al. (2002) to assess carotenoid content in plant leaves. It uses reciprocal reflectance at 510nm (sensitive to carotenoids) and 550nm (to remove chlorophyll effects), providing a non-destructive method for carotenoid estimation.
