Abstract

Abstract Growth of Rosa × hybrida ‘Meirutral’ under different spectral filters was evaluated. Two filters that altered far-red (730 nm)/red (660 nm) light (FR/R) were developed. One, a blue textile dye, increased FR/R by filtering out a portion of red light. The second, a salt (copper sulfate) decreased FR/R by filtering out a greater portion of far-red than red light. A third filter that did not alter light quality was the control. The filters were installed in specially built growth chambers. Photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) was adjusted to equal values in each chamber. Plants were significantly shorter and had higher leaf chlorophyll when grown under the reduced FR/R filter. The number of flower buds and number of buds showing color at termination of the experiment was not affected by light quality treatments.
