“…Kanno et al (2009) attributed the positive effect of HNT on plant biomass to an increase in leaf area in rice plants, which was found in tomatoes and Galega officinalis (Hussey, 1965; Patterson, 1993) as well. LNT, on the other hand, suppressed plant height, number of leaves, LAI, SLA, and LAR, corresponding to the previous studies (Cockshull, 1979; Dejong and Smeets, 1982; Patterson, 1993; Kjær et al, 2007, 2008; Kjaer et al, 2010). …”

Plant Physiological, Morphological and Yield-Related Responses to Night Temperature Changes across Different Species and Plant Functional Types

Land surface temperature over the past decades has shown a faster warming trend during the night than during the day. Extremely low night temperatures have occurred frequently due to the influence of land-sea thermal difference, topography and climate change. This asymmetric night temperature change is expected to affect plant ecophysiology and growth, as the plant carbon consumption processes could be affected more than the assimilation processes because photosynthesis in most plants occurs during the daytime whereas plant respiration occurs throughout the day. The effects of high night temperature (HNT) and low night temperature (LNT) on plant ecophysiological and growing processes and how the effects vary among different plant functional types (PFTs) have not been analyzed extensively. In this meta-analysis, we examined the effect of HNT and LNT on plant physiology and growth across different PFTs and experimental settings. Plant species were grouped according to their photosynthetic pathways (C3, C4, and CAM), growth forms (herbaceous, woody), and economic purposes (crop, non-crop). We found that HNT and LNT both had a negative effect on plant yield, but the effect of HNT on plant yield was primarily related to a reduction in biomass allocation to reproduction organs and the effect of LNT on plant yield was more related to a negative effect on total biomass. Leaf growth was stimulated at HNT and suppressed at LNT. HNT accelerated plants ecophysiological processes, including photosynthesis and dark respiration, while LNT slowed these processes. Overall, the results showed that the effects of night temperature on plant physiology and growth varied between HNT and LNT, among the response variables and PFTs, and depended on the magnitude of temperature change and experimental design. These findings suggest complexities and challenges in seeking general patterns of terrestrial plant growth in HNT and LNT. The PFT specific responses of plants are critical for obtaining credible predictions of the changes in crop production, plant community structure, vegetation dynamics, biodiversity, and ecosystem functioning of terrestrial biomes when asymmetric night temperature change continues.

“…Many authors have focused on the relationship between temperature and time to flowering in chrysanthemum (e.g., Cockshull, 1979;Whealy et al, 1987;Pearson et al, 1993;Larsen and Persson, 1999). Nevertheless, in spite of the major importance of flower characteristics on the external quality of chrysanthemum and, therefore, on its price (Carvalho and Heuvelink, 2001), quantitative information on the effect of temperature on flower number, size, position and colour is still very scarce.…”

“…High night temperatures (>22°C) delay flowering and induce abnormal inflorescence development by suppressing flower bud initiation and/or development (Cathey, 1954;Cockshull, 1979;Cockshull and Kofraneck, 1994;Whealy et al, 1987). However, the flowering of midMay to June crops of standard summer-to-autumn flowering cultivars, such as 'Floral Yuka', is often delayed markedly and many anomalous involucral bracts develop in the capitulum.…”

Factors involved in delayed flowering and the formation of abnormal capitula in four summer-to-autumn flowering cultivars of Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. were investigated. Anomalous involucral bracts, i.e. bracts formed among ray and disc florets within the capitulum, were more frequent in 'Floral Yuka' plants grown at day/night temperatures of 20/12.5°C than at 20/20°C under a 12 h day length or natural day length of 14-15 h. The number of involucral bracts in the capitulum of plants grown at either 35/25°C or 25/15°C increased compared with that of plants grown at 30/20°C under a 12 h day length. A natural long day length suppressed flower bud development and promoted the formation of many involucral bracts in the capitulum, compared with inflorescences of plants grown under a 12 h day length. Long day length of 14-15 h induced anomalous involucral bract formation in 'Floral Yuka' and 'Iwa no Hakusen'. In contrast, high temperature promoted involucral bract formation in the capitulum, primarily in 'Seiun', and neither day length nor temperature affected involucral bract formation in 'Natsubiyori'.
