Increasing the Red Fraction in Light-emitting Diode Supplemental Light Enhances Yield Without Affecting the Quality of Greenhouse-grown Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.)

Increasing the Red Fraction in Light-emitting Diode Supplemental Light Enhances Yield Without Affecting the Quality of Greenhouse-grown Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.)

Supplemental lighting by light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in a greenhouse allows for spectral flexibility, which may enhance plant growth and morphology, yield, quality, light use efficiency, and electric energy efficiency (yield/kWh). A greenhouse experiment of two lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) cultivars...
