Of course, absorption of photons is needed for photosynthesis, but the reverse, photosynthesis when there is absorption, is not necessarily true. As a check on the existence of absorption limits we measured spectra for

Scopel](https://www.controlledenvironments.org/plant-photomorphogenesis-and-canopy-growth-carlos-l-ballare-and-ana-l-scopel/) - INTRODUCTION An important motivation for studying photomorphogenesis is to understand the relationships among plant photophysiology in canopies, canopy productivity, and agronomic yield. This understanding is essential to optimize lighting systems used for plant farming in controlled environments (CE) and for the design of genetically engineered crop strains with altered photoresponses. This article provides an overview
- [PHYTOCHROME-MEDIATED RESPONSES <BR> IMPLICATIONS FOR CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH FACILITIES <BR> Harry Smith](https://www.controlledenvironments.org/phytochrome-mediated-responses-implications-for-controlled-environment-research-facilities-harry-smith/) - Light is undoubtedly the most important environmental variable for plant growth and development; plants not only use radiant energy in photosynthesis, they also respond to the quantity, quality, direction and timing of incident radiation through photomorphogenic responses that can have huge effects on the rate of growth and the pattern of development. It is surprising,

Tikhomirov](https://www.controlledenvironments.org/optimization-of-lamp-spectrum-for-vegetable-growth-short-report-b-prikupets-and-a-a-tikhomirov/) - An increase in the demand for and production of vegetables in the winter, mainly in northern and Siberian regions, inevitably leads to mass building of structures for growing plants under completely artificial conditions. It is required to create an industrial lighting technology whose main parameters (spectrum, irradiance, photoperiod) should be assigned carefully and should uniquely

Tikhomirov](https://www.controlledenvironments.org/spectral-composition-of-light-and-growing-of-plants-in-controlled-environments-alexander-a-tikhomirov/) - The main conclusions of many investigations about general requirements of plants for spectral composition of PAR are based on phylogenetic aspects of plant growth (Kleshnin et al., 1980; Geiger, 1994; et al). We think that these aspects are not the main criteria in choosing the spectral composition required for growing plants in controlled conditions. Our

Changing the balance of red (R) to far-red (FR) radiation, but with a fixed photosynthetic input can shift the phytochrome photoequilibrium in a plant and generate
