Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Cool days and warm nights reduced sweetpotato storage root yield by about 50% in Experiment 1.
- Intervention effect With increased plant population, sweetpotato storage root yield under inverse temperatures was similar to controls in Experiment 2.
- Intervention effect Sweetpotato storage root yield was similar to controls when cool day and warm night temperatures began 6-8 weeks after planting.
- Intervention effect Inverted temperature treatments substantially reduced sweetpotato canopy height.
- Intervention effect Inverse temperature controlled sweetpotato canopy height whether begun at planting or 6-8 weeks later.
