Effects of Light Quantity and Quality on Horticultural Crops - Hardcover

by László Balázs (Guest Editor), Gergő Péter Kovács (Guest Editor)

There is a growing need to control light intensity and spectral distribution in horticulture to optimize crop yield and nutritional traits. The ten publications in this Special Issue cover several light control methods, ranging from applying shading nets, to greenhouse supplementary lighting, to using LEDs as a sole light source during cultivation. This Reprint covers various horticultural crops, including lettuce, Ethiopian kale, Chinese cabbage, pepper, pea, tomato, basil, and blueberry. The contributions provide a snapshot of current research in horticultural lighting.
