Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Tomato seedling height, root length and leaf number did not differ between root-zone cooling temperatures.
- Intervention effect At 28 DAS, tomato leaf area was higher at 25C than at 20C.
- Intervention effect At 28 DAS, tomato shoot and root chlorophyll content was higher at 25C than at 20C.
- Recommendation The authors consider 25C root-zone cooling sufficient for tomato seedling growth given energy efficiency.
