Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Low light intensity delayed flower initiation.
- Intervention effect Low light was associated with reduced dry-weight growth and leaf initiation and more leaves below the flower.
- Intervention effect Short days delayed flower initiation.
- Intervention effect Short days increased the number of leaves below the flower.
- Intervention effect Internode length was greater under long days than short days.
- Intervention effect Middle-of-night illumination promoted flower initiation more effectively than extending the day.
- Intervention effect Internode length was similar under middle-of-night illumination and day extension.
- Intervention effect High night temperature generally delayed flower initiation.
- Intervention effect High night temperature generally increased the number of leaves below the flower.
- Intervention effect Low-temperature treatment promoted later flower initiation.
- Intervention effect Low-temperature treatment reduced the number of leaves below the flower.
