Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Dark-grown wheat seedlings decelerated extension growth after light exposure, with a mean latency of 10.4 minutes.
- Observation The five-minute red-light effect was not reversed by 730-nanometer far-red light.
- Observation One-second red pulses were effective and immediately reversible by 759-nanometer far-red light.
- Intervention effect Green-pretreated seedlings showed red-light-induced deceleration after a longer mean lag of 23.75 minutes.
- Intervention effect Green-pretreated seedlings showed no response to red light for less than one minute.
- Observation In green-pretreated seedlings, five minutes of red light was fully reversible by five minutes of 730-nanometer far-red.
- Observation Nonpretreated seedlings were approximately 100 times more sensitive to the far-red-absorbing form of phytochrome than pretreated seedlings.
