Mohd Kamil Yusof, . and Mohd Razi Ismail, . Effect of irradiance on growth physiological processes and yield of melon (Cucumis melo) plants grown in hydroponics. pp. 103-110. ISSN 0126-6128
Abstract
The effect of different irradiance levels on melon of Cucumis melo ) cv. Birdie Charity Ball and Jade Dew grown in hydroponics was investigated. Plants were exposed to mean daily irradiance levels of 11 A 8.2 6.1 and 3.0 MJm day 1 achieved by using different levels of shade.The dry matter yield appeared to be directly proportional to the irradiance level received by plants. Stomatal conductance and photosynthetic rate were kighest when the plants were grown under the highest irradiance level. Plants grown under 11.4 mm-2 d-1 had the highest fruit fresh weight and total soluble solids. All cultivars failed to fruit when grown under irradiance of 3.0 MJ m-2 d-1
