Long-term CO2 Enrichment Increases Biomass but Results in Rapid Physiological Acclimation of Petunia and Pansy
Published 2023-08-01“…Therefore, the objective of this research was to determine species-specific acclimation responses to elevated CO2 concentrations for pansy (Viola ×wittrockiana ‘Matrix Blue Blotch Improved’) and petunia (Petunia ×hybrida ‘Dreams Midnight’). Seedlings were transplanted to 11.5-cm pots and placed in growth chambers with air temperature, relative humidity, and radiation intensity setpoints of 21 °C, 55%, and 250 μmol⋅m−2⋅s−1, respectively. …”

End-of-day Far-red Lighting with a Low Daily Light Integral Increases Stem Length But Does Not Promote Early Leaf Expansion for Petunia ×hybrida Seedlings
Published 2023-08-01“…Thus, the objective of this study was to examine the effects of end-of-day far-red (EOD-FR) radiation treatments varying in intensity, R:FR (600–700 nm/700–780 nm), and duration on early leaf expansion and plug quality for petunia (Petunia ×hybrida) ‘Wave Purple’ and ‘Dreams Midnight’. Seedlings were grown in 128-cell trays in a common greenhouse environment under a simulated winter DLI (∼5.3 mol·m−2·s−1) and received one of four EOD-FR treatments, control conditions (no EOD-FR or supplemental lighting), or supplemental lighting (target photosynthetic photon flux density of 70 μmol·m−2·s−1). …”

A Low Ratio of Red to Far-red Radiation (R:FR) Throughout the Photoperiod but Not at End-of-day Promotes Shade Avoidance for Petunia ×hybrida Seedlings
Published 2023-12-01“…Thus, the objectives of this work were to examine the effects of far-red radiation applied throughout the photoperiod and as an end-of-day radiation treatment on the morphology of petunia ‘Dreams Midnight’ seedlings grown under different temperature conditions. …”
