Table 2. Correlation coefficients between fractional Intercepted PAR (fIPAR) and Chlorophyll Content Index (CCI) and vegetation indices (VI) obtained with a consumer-grade camera (see Table 1 for details on the vegetation indices studied) at each phenological stage (n = 12, except at initial grain filling where n = 10).
