stem base diameter


Explanation:
http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0034...

from the abstracts (PT & EN):

Plantas sob pleno sol e sob 20% de sombreamento apresentaram maiores diâmetros do colo e menores relações entre altura e diâmetro do colo,

Plants in full sun and 20% shade showed a higher stem base diameter; lower height/stem base diameter ratio, which reveals more balanced growth.

archegonium diameter; diameter at the archegonium's height


Explanation:
Em termos de botânica, "colo" refere-se ao "canal afilado do arquegônio". Veja http://www.aulete.com.br/colo

arquegônio: Pequeno órgão sexual feminino, ger. com formato de garrafa, que dá origem à oosfera ou gameta feminino, esp. nas gimnospermas. - http://www.aulete.com.br/arquegônio

archegonium: the female sex organ in mosses, liverworts, ferns, and most conifers.

Na tradução, não precisa dizer "canal", uma vez que "archegonium" já implica que se trata de um canal:

"The archegonium has a long neck canal or venter and a swollen base." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archegonium

Or better yet: archegonial diameter
"Two of the vertical rows facing each other across the short diameter of the archegonium meet at a straight central wall, whereas the two rows in line with the longer archegonial diameter do not touch each other." - https://www.ideals.illinois.edu/bitstream/handle/2142/25138/...
