Potassium Nutrition Affects Leaf Growth, Anatomy, and Macroelements of Guzmania [PDF]
HortScience, 2008 Guzmania lingulata (L.) Mez. ‘Cherry’ plants were grown in coconut husk chips. All plants were given 8 mm nitrogen (N), 2 mm phosphorus (P), 4 mm calcium (Ca), and 1 mm magnesium (Mg) at each irrigation with potassium (K) concentration at 0, 2, 4, or 6 mm.

Modeling the Population Demographics & Viability of Imperiled Guzmania monostachia Populations
SPORA: A Journal of Biomathematics, 2023 Guzmania monostachia is a large, long-lived bromeliad whose leaves grow in a rosette pattern and is native to the Americas, but endangered in Florida due to damage caused by the invasive weevil Metamasius callizona. Each G. monostachia rosette can reproduce sexually via flowers or asexually by producing clonal offshoot rosettes. We model the population

Chloroplast Acclimation in Leaves of Guzmania monostachia in Response to High Light [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1999 Abstract Acclimation of leaves to high light (HL; 650 μmol m−2 s−1) was investigated in the long-lived epiphytic bromeliad Guzmania monostachiaand compared with plants maintained under low light (LL; 50 μmol m−2 s−1). Despite a 60% decrease in total chlorophyll in HL-grown plants, the chlorophyll a/bratio remained stable.

Feasibility study on mental health‐care effects of plant installations in office spaces
JAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 376-388, July 2019., 2019 This paper focuses on the mental health‐care effects of plant installation in office spaces. To clarify the effect of indoor plants, we conducted a demonstration experiment in two rooms of an office. In the experiment, nine cycles were conducted while changing the type of plants including vegetables and foliage plants.
