Describe the type of treatment that proves this. Is some kind of light given during the night or some period of darkness given during the day?arrow_forward

What it the important aspect?arrow_forwardWhat information is used by plants to determine if they are growing in the shade or the open canopy? How does a“sun plant” respond once it detects that it is growing in the shade? How Is this different from the response you would expect from a“shade plant”?arrow_forward
