Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Supplemental lighting with foliar phosphorus significantly stimulated flower retention and stage IV flower bud development in passion fruit.
- Intervention effect Supplemental lighting with foliar phosphorus significantly enhanced photosynthetic efficiency in passion fruit.
- Intervention effect The treatment increased the net photosynthetic rate (Pn) in passion fruit.
- Intervention effect The treatment reduced the intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) in passion fruit, which the authors read as improved carbon assimilation.
- Intervention effect The treatment enhanced stomatal conductance (Gs) in passion fruit.
- Intervention effect Treated passion fruit seedlings in controlled trials showed accelerated lateral branching.
- Intervention effect Treated passion fruit seedlings in controlled trials showed stress resilience.
- Recommendation The combined lighting and phosphorus strategy can stabilize passion fruit yields in climate-variable regions.
