Supplemental Far-Red Light Stimulates Lettuce Growth: Disentangling Morphological and Physiological Effects
Light-emitting diodes allow for the application of specific wavelengths of light to induce various morphological and physiological responses. In lettuce (<i>Lactuca sativa</i>), far-red light (700–800 nm) is integral to initiating shade responses which can increase plant growth. In the f...
