Paradise by the far-red light: Far-red and red:blue ratios independently affect yield, pigments, and carbohydrate production in lettuce, .

In controlled environment agriculture, customized light treatments using light-emitting diodes are crucial to improving crop yield and quality. Red (R; 600-700 nm) and blue light (B; 400-500 nm) are two major parts of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), often preferred in crop production. Far-red radiation (FR; 700-800 nm), although not part of PAR, can also affect photosynthesis and can have profound effects on a range of morphological and physiological processes.

Petunia as a model for MYB transcription factor action under salt stress.

Salinity is a current and growing problem, affecting crops worldwide by reducing yields and product quality. Plants have different mechanisms to adapt to salinity; some crops are highly studied, and their salinity tolerance mechanisms are widely known. However, there are other crops with commercial importance that still need characterization of their molecular mechanisms.

Effect of preharvest conditions on cut-flower quality.

The cut flower industry has a global reach as flowers are often produced in countries around the equator and transported by plane or ship (reefer) mostly to the global north. Vase-life issues are often regarded as linked to only postharvest conditions while cultivation factors are just as important. Here, we review the main causes for quality reduction in cut flowers with the emphasis on the importance of preharvest conditions.
