Abstract: Abstract Plant responses to the red-to-far-red ratio (R:FR) of light have been investigated, but interaction between R:FR and other factors is less known. Here, we investigated the effects of R:FR × vapor-pressure deficit (VPD) on stem elongation… read more here.

Abstract: Early snowmelt is known to accelerate budburst. Budburst and leaf expansion require water absorption, and current-year vessels which function as water pathways begin to mature in early spring. However, whether the limitation of xylem reactivation… read more here.

Abstract: Introduction Low light intensity and far-red (FR) light act as shade signals to induce specific morphological changes mediated by plant photoreceptors phytochromes (PHYs). Applying FR light or lowering light intensity over a longer photoperiod at… read more here.
