The fractal analysis is a modern research tool, which can be added to the ampelometric method in the morphological characterization of grapevine leaf, specific morphologic part of the plant used in the characterization of grapevine varieties. In this paper, there are presented the morphologic evaluations of grapevine varieties from the sort-group Galbenă de Odobeşti by determination of the fractal dimension or degree of leaves shape irregularity.
The results obtained showed that the fractal dimension of the leaves represent descriptive morphologic parameters, which could be used with classical ampelographic descriptors in the characterization and establishment of the deferents of the grapevine varieties from the sort-group Galbena de Odobesti.
