effective at inhibiting flowering of SDPs. For example, the flowering of chrysanthemum, dahlia ( Dahlia hortensis ), and marigold ( Tagetes erecta ) was delayed by 42, 11, and 10 to 20 d when grown under 4-h night interruption (NI) provided by light

al. (2005) reported that increasing the DLI from 5 to 43 mol·m −2 ·d −1 during the finish stage accelerated flowering (by <5 d) in Salvia coccinea L., but Tagetes erecta L. flowered at a similar time under a DLI of 19 or 43 mol·m −2 ·d −1 ; node
