Other claims from this paper (16)
- Association First flowering time declined with temperature at a given light intensity.
- Association First flowering time declined curvilinearly with light, sharply at low temperature and slightly at high temperature.
- Association At highest light, bud number was greatest at lowest temperature.
- Association At lower light, bud number had an optimum temperature of 13 to 19 °C.
- Association Bud number increased curvilinearly with light at any given temperature.
- Association Fruit number rose linearly with light, more steeply at low temperature.
- Association Fruit number declined curvilinearly with temperature at each light level.
- Association Mean fruit weight had a curvilinear relation to temperature.
- Association Fruit weight was greatest at the highest light intensities.
- Association Fruit growth period related curvilinearly to light at all temperatures.
- Association Fruit growth period increased curvilinearly with temperature.
- Association Fruit production rate increased curvilinearly with light.
- Association At lowest light, fruit production rate peaked at 25 °C then declined.
- Association At highest light, fruit production rate peaked at 22 °C then declined.
- Association Optimum temperature for production rate declined as light rose.
- Recommendation The authors suggest incorporating these relationships into greenhouse climate and fertigation programs.
