    Candidate species selection for a controlled ecological life-support system

    Author(s): Mitchell, Cary A.
    Abstract: NASA Ames Cooperative Agreement NCC 2-100 was a project funded in the biomass production group of the NASA Controlled Ecological Life-Support System (CELSS) Program. The early years of the project emphasized the use of leaf ...

    Optimizing environmental conditions for mass application of mechano-dwarfing stimuli to Arabidopsis

    Author(s): Montgomery, Jill A.; Bressan, Ray A.; Mitchell, Cary A.
    Abstract: Obtaining uniform mechano-dwarfing of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. seedlings within dense plantings is problematic. Alternative forms of mechano-stimulation were applied to seedlings in effort to obtain uniform growth ...

    Modification of yield and chlorophyll content in leaf lettuce by HPS radiation and nitrogen treatments

    Author(s): Mitchell, Cary A.; Leakakos, Tina; Ford, Tameria L.
    Abstract: The potential of realizing high photosynthetic photon flux from radiation by high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamp, alone or in combination with metal halide (MH) plus quartz iodide (QI) incandescent lamps, to support lettuce ...

    Stimulation of lettuce productivity by manipulation of diurnal temperature and light

    Author(s): Knight, Sharon L.; Mitchell, Cary A.
    Abstract: Salad Bowl and Waldmann's Green leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) were exposed to photosynthetic photon flux densities (PPFDs) of 444 or 889 micromol/s per sq m for 20 hrs/day under a diurnal temperature regime of 25-C ...

    Effects of incandescent radiation on photosynthesis, growth rate and yield of 'Waldmann's Green' leaf lettuce

    Author(s): Knight, Sharon L.; Mitchell, Cary A.
    Abstract: Effects of different ratios of incandescent (ln) to fluorescent (Fl) radiation were tested on growth of 'Waldmann's Green' leaf lettuce in a controlled environment. After 4 days of treatment, dry weight, leaf area, relative ...
