Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect All plants stored at 4 or 7 °C died.
- Intervention effect Survival at 10 °C was 89% to 100%.
- Intervention effect Survival at 13 or 16 °C was 100%.
- Intervention effect Plant growth was faster after storage at 13 and 16 °C than at 10 °C.
- Intervention effect Storage at 16 °C caused unwanted leaf growth during storage.
- Intervention effect Shoot removal had no effect on survival.
- Intervention effect Shoot removal had no effect on forcing performance.
- Intervention effect Iprodione drench did not improve survival.
- Mechanism The authors suggest 13 °C is near the base temperature for elephant ear leaf development.
- Recommendation Shoot removal before storage is recommended to optimize room space.
