Title

Hiroko SUZUKI; Mitsuo KONDO Journal of The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture 2005. doi:10.5632/jila.68.533
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Interior planting spaces had almost no UV-B radiation.
- Intervention effect Removing UV-B from natural light elongated Kentucky blue grass plant height and leaf area.
- Intervention effect Removing UV-B from natural light elongated Japanese white oak plant height and leaf area.
- Intervention effect UV-B irradiation lowered Kentucky blue grass dry weight.
- Association Growth inhibition by UV-B increased with irradiation intensity in Kentucky blue grass.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that insufficient UV-B causes spindly and thickening growth indoors.
- Recommendation The authors suggest UV-B radiation could help maintain healthy growth indoors.
