(1997) found that salvia ( Salvia sp.) seedlings grown in trays with 7.3-cm 3 root volumes suffered from root restriction and had decreased net assimilation rates compared with trays with 55-, 166-, and 510-cm 3 root volumes. Latimer (1991) also

). Moreover, growth traits, including relative growth rate (RGR), net assimilation rate (NAR), and leaf area ratio (LAR), are greatly dependent on the efficiency with which intercepted radiation is transformed into DW ( Dapoigny et al., 2000 ). Nutrient

(from day 4 to day 30 or 33), and at a 50% higher DLI, which could cause different responses. The relative growth rate of a plant is a function of its leaf area ratio and the net assimilation rate ( Lambers et al., 2008 ). The leaf area ratio indicates
