LARAMIE, Wyo., Oct. 28 -- The University of Wyoming issued the following news release:
A new walk-in growth chamber at the University of Wyoming's Plant Growth and Phenotyping
Facility will allow UW researchers to advance photobiology, a rapidly growing subfield
in plant science that explores how light quality influences plant growth, development
and resource-use efficiency.
Funding from the state of Wyoming enabled the addition of the Conviron walk-in chamber,
designed to support advanced studies in light manipulation, nutrient uptake and plant-environment
interactions.
Unlike older chambers with fixed broad-spectrum lighting, the new system allows researchers
to adjust red, blue and far-red wavelengths, opening new avenues for studying...
