Blue light promotes vascular reconnection, while red light boosts the physiological response and quality of grafted watermelon seedlings

Abstract The wound inflicted during grafting of watermelon seedlings requires rapid and sufficient vascular development which is affected by light quality. Our objective was to investigate the effect of light spectra emitted by light-emitting diodes (LEDs) during healing of grafted watermelon (Citru...
