The Effect of Far-Red Light on the Growth of Tobacco Leaves [PDF]
To investigate how far-red (FR) light affects tobacco leaf growth, we established different light conditions, namely, CK: white (WL), T1: red (R), T2: red–white (R+WL) combination, T3: white–far-red (WL+FR) combination, and T4: white–red–far-red (WL+R+FR)

Phytochrome E Plays a Role in the Suppression of Germination in Far‐Red Light in Tomato [PDF]
As photoautotrophs, plants use light not only as a source of energy but also as cues for directing growth and development. Phytochromes comprise a small gene family of plant specific light receptors that absorb mostly in the red/far‐red portion of the ...

Synthesis of C8-Vinyl Chlorophylls d and f Impairs Far-Red Light Photoacclimation and Growth Under Far-Red Light [PDF]
The inducible biosynthesis of chlorophylls d and f enables a subset of specialised cyanobacteria to perform oxygenic photosynthesis under far-red light—in the absence of visible wavelengths—via a process termed far-red light photoacclimation.

A Low Red/Far-Red Light Ratio Promotes a Reduction in Time from Sowing to Flowering in Wheat Under Speed Breeding Conditions [PDF]
Conventional methods for obtaining pure durum wheat lines are time-consuming and low-throughput, making speed breeding (SB) a promising alternative. This study investigated SB optimization using far-red (FR) light.

Quantifying the effects of far-red light on lettuce photosynthesis and growth using a 3D modelling approach [PDF]
In vertical farms, the supplementation of far-red light has been widely applied to regulate plant growth and development. However, the relative contribution of far-red to photosynthesis and plant growth in indoor production systems is not sufficiently ...

Dependence of far-red light on red and green light at increasing growth of lettuce. [PDF]
Despite being outside of the traditionally defined photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) waveband (400-700 nm), far-red (FR; 700-799 nm) light can increase photosynthesis and induce shade-avoidance responses, which increases light interception and ...

Additional far-red light improves the growth and resistance of the photosynthetic apparatus of Lactuca sativa L. to high-intensity light [PDF]
The effects of additional far-red light (FRL) on the growth parameters, photosynthetic activity, and pro- or antioxidant balance of Lactuca sativa L. plants grown for 30 d were studied.
