Long supplementary light duration under same daily light integral provided by white plus blue light-emitting diodes improves quality of greenhouse-grown tomato seedlings
Optimizing light conditions is critical for plant growth and seedling production in greenhouse, especially in seasons when the sunlight is...

The Role of Photosynthetic Daily Light Integral in Plant Response to Extended Photoperiods
AbstractUnder continuous lighting (CL, 24 h photoperiod), both the energy and signaling components of light are continuously supplied to plants. In...

Daily light integral affects photosynthesis, growth, and flowering of Korean native Veronica rotunda and V. longifolia
This study investigated the effects of daily light integral (DLI) on the photosynthesis, growth, and flowering of Veronica rotunda var. subintegra ...

Growth, flowering and morphological responses of petunia, a photosensitive plant, to light conditions in a greenhouse modified by dye-sensitized solar cells and light-emitting diodes
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) can be used as greenhouse-glazing materials because of their translucent properties, varied colors, and ability to...

Effect of Abnormal Light/Dark Cycles on the Pigment Complex of Brassicaceae and Solanaceae Plants
AbstractUnder controlled environmental conditions, the authors studied the effect of extended light/dark cycles of 24/12, 48/24, 96/48, and 120/60 h...

Recent levels of daily photosynthetic photon flux density have a larger influence on light acclimation responses of cucumber leaves than earlier levels
Leaves respond to the photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) and accordingly adjust their morphological and physiological properties, including...

Does leaf net carbon gain and damage explain the minimum thresholds of light for shade tolerance in seedlings of an emergent rainforest tropical tree?
Key messageThe strategies of net carbon gain and defense/storage are evidenced to be complementary for the shade tolerance of seedlings of an...

Responses of Tomato and Eggplant to Abnormal Light/Dark Cycles and Continuous Lighting
AbstractTomato and eggplant are the most sensitive to continuous lighting (CL) crops. The responses of tomato and eggplant to CL and abnormal...

Symbiont-mediated tradeoffs between growth and heat tolerance are modulated by light and temperature in the coral Montipora capitata
Corals’ endosymbiotic algae (Symbiodiniaceae) supply much of the energetic demands of the host, and some symbionts, such as Durusdinium spp., may...

Effects of variable daily light integrals and elevated CO2 on the adult and juvenile performance of two Acropora corals
Reef-building corals are subject to multi-day periods of reduced light and progressive ocean acidification. We experimentally assessed how adult and...

Light Stress
Wavelengths contain higher energy as they are shorter. Thus, lightLight energy is higher for UVUV, lower for infra-redInfrared and intermediate for...

Shoot Growth Parameters of Potato Seedlings are Determined by Light and Temperature Conditions
Raising quality hybrid potato true seedlings — derived from hybrid true potato seeds (TPS) — for field transplanting is a critical aspect...

Dispersal Patterns and Daily Soil Emergence Activity of Phyllophaga capillata (Coleoptera: Melolonthidae) in Soybeans in Central Brazil
Mark-release-recapture studies have been used to evaluate the dispersal ability of different insect species. In the field, we evaluated the dispersal...

Low light intensity increased survival of coral spat in aquaculture
Coral reef ecosystems are declining and may not recover under future climate scenarios without intervention. Seeding reefs with corals bred in...

Harnessing solar power: photoautotrophy supplements the diet of a low-light dwelling sponge
The ability of organisms to combine autotrophy and heterotrophy gives rise to one of the most successful nutritional strategies on Earth: mixotrophy....

Evaluation of the light use efficiency and water use efficiency of sweet peppers subjected to supplemental interlighting in greenhouses
In greenhouses, the higher plant density causes poor light environments inside the canopy due to the mutual shading of adjacent plants. Interlighting...

Growth and physiological responses of Panax ginseng seedlings as affected by light intensity and photoperiod
The effects of light intensity and photoperiod, and their combination as daily light integrals (DLI) on the growth and physiological traits of Panax...

An open-source controller to build a dynamic light intensity setup
BackgroundThe development and physiology of plants are influenced by light intensity and its changes. Despite the significance of this phenomenon,...

Integral Analysis of Circadian Rhythms
Our biological processes do not present a static and steady picture. Instead, most of these processes oscillate throughout the 24-h day. The system...
