Abstract Far‐red photons (701–750 nm) are abundant in sunlight but are considered inactive for photosynthesis and are thus excluded from the definition of photosynthetically …
Greenhouses in high latitudes consume vast amounts of energy for heating and supplemental lighting. Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have been suggested as having great …

Linear electron transport depends on balanced excitation of photosystem I and II. Far‐red light preferentially excites photosystem I (PSI) and can enhance the photosynthetic efficiency …
We investigated the effects of light spectral and thermal properties on biomass allocation among vegetative and reproductive structures in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.'Merlice') …

Far-red photons regulate shade avoidance responses and can have powerful effects on plant morphology and radiation capture. Recent studies have shown that far-red photons …
LED technology facilitates a range of spectral quality, which can be used to optimize photosynthesis, plant shape and secondary metabolism. We conducted three studies to …
LED lighting is appointed as the successor of HPS lighting in greenhouses since it can lead to a more sustainable cultivation, ie it converts electrical energy into photosynthetically …
