Abstract/Contents: | "In controlled environment cabinets, root growth relative to shoot growth varied directly with the temperature within the range 50°-80° F. Increasing the photoperiod from 6 to 12 hours increased the root growth relative to shoot growth; additional hours of light had no further influence on this ratio. These results are discussed in relation to the maintenance of a balance between photosynthesis and the absorption of water and minerals." |
