Short summary
The photochemical reflectance index (PRI) derived from remotely sensed data has emerged to be a pre-visual indicator of water stress. This study evaluated the impact of the varying shaded-leaf fractions on estimating relative water content (RWC) across growth stages of winter wheat using PRI derived from hyperspectral imagery. Results showed that PRI of the pure shaded leaves may yield inaccurate estimates of plant water status, but the accuracy of RWC predictions was not significantly affected.
