temperatures for pepper photosynthesis range from 25 to 35 °C, and temperatures outside this range can limit the yield; for example, C . chinense flower abortion increased 2-fold and fruit set decreased 3-fold when greenhouse temperatures were increased from

The short-term effects of photosynthetic photon flux (PPF), day/night temperatures and CO2 concentration on CO2 exchange were determined for two Phalaenopsis hybrids. At 20 °C, the saturating PPF for photosynthesis was 180 μmol·m-2s-1. At this PPF and ambient CO2 level (380 μL·L-1), a day/night temperature of 20/15 °C resulted in the largest daily CO2 uptake. Higher night temperatures probably increased the respiration rate and lowered daily CO2 uptake in comparison with 20/15 °C. An increase in the CO2 concentration from 380 to 950 μL·L-1 increased daily CO2 uptake by 82%.

The ultraviolet radiation B region (UV-B, 280–315 nm) is critical for plant growth and development, morphogenesis, adaptive orientation, photosynthesis, and secondary metabolism ( Krizek, 2004 ; Rozema et al., 1997 ; Teramura, 1983 ). In recent
