Hi Xiaohua,

Scion image (http://www.scioncorp.com/pages/scion_image_windows.htm) is a n=
ice, free software that should allow you to manually calculate leaf damage =
areas. Automatic processing is much trickier. Regent intruments (http://reg=
entinstruments.com/) have various automated image analysis softwares that c=
ould work, but are rather expensive.> Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2007 08:26:51 -0500=
