e1“The yield of 2 crops of tomatoes ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Tropic) was determined in CO 2 enriched, unventilated and conventionally ventilated greenhouses”
e6“At the standard nutrient level, unventilated houses yielded 64 and 63% greater than the control at 1000 and 1350 μl CO 2 /liter, respectively”
e7“At the high nutrient level, they yielded 35 and 37% greater”
