Short photoperiod reduces the temperature sensitivity of leaf‐out in saplings of Fagus sylvatica but not in horse chestnut

Global Change Biology, 2019
Leaf phenology is one of the most reliable bioindicators of ongoing global warming in temperate and boreal zones because it is highly sensitive to temperature variation.

Effects of Continuous Light (LD24:0) Modulate the Expression of Lysozyme, Mucin and Peripheral Blood Cells in Rainbow Trout

Fishes, 2022
Continuous photoperiod is extensively used in fish farming, to regulate the reproductive cycle, despite evidence suggesting that artificial photoperiods can act as a stressor and impair the immune system.

Parallel origins of photoperiod adaptation following dual domestications of common bean

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2019
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is an important grain legume domesticated independently in Mexico and Andean South America approximately 8000 years ago. Wild forms are obligate short-day plants, and relaxation of photoperiod sensitivity was important

Acclimation of circadian rhythms in woodland strawberries (Fragaria vesca L.) to Arctic and mid-latitude photoperiods

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Though many abiotic factors are constantly changing, the photoperiod is a predictable factor that enables plants to time many physiological responses.

Influence of Different Photoperiod and Temperature Regimes on Growth and Bulb Quality of Garlic (Allium sativum L.) Cultivars

Agronomy, 2019
Growth and bulb development in garlic is affected considerably by variations in photoperiod and temperature thereby influencing its morphology, physiology, and nutritive quality. Varied combinations of photoperiods and temperatures may influence the bulb
