Modeling the Interactive Effect of the Photoperiod and Temperature on Shoot Elongation of Mulberry

Potted mulberry plants (Morus alba L. “Shinn-ichinose”) were grown in phytotrons under natural sunlight, and their shoot growth response to temperature and photoperiod was investigated. A short photoperiod caused cessation of shoot growth, and this effect was prominent at 20°C. Temperatures higher t...
