Using growth models at high abstraction level the reactions of radish (Raphanus sativus var. sativus) growth components (leaf weight ratio, specific leaf area, leaf area ratio, net assimilation rate) to photosynthetic photon flux density and air temperature were tested in growth chambers, greenhouses and in the field. The levels of the morphological components are about identical. Net assimilation rate was somewhat lower in the greenhouses and distinctly lower in the field, compared to the values in the growth chambers. The qualitative reaction pattern of growth components to temperature and radiation was about equal and is described in detail. The causes for differences in quantitative growth performance are discussed.

... Yield of kohlrabi is generally evaluated as the result of tuber size. During the spring growing season, tuber weight, diameter, and yield values were the greater than during the fall growing season. There is a high probability that this correlates with the higher temperature and light conditions of spring. Fink and Krug (1989) found that the growth rate of tuber diameter and leaf area at 18 ºC were greater than those of 10 ºC, and Wendt (1978) reported that increasing the soil temperature from 5 to 20 ºC produced larger stems in cv. Roggli's Weisser Treib, particularly with increasing light. Yamaguchi (1983) determined that the recommended temperature range f ...

... We found approximately 68.0% difference between the growth and yield of crops grown under greenhouse and in field conditions, even when both receive the same EFB application. This observation is consistent with Krug and Fink (1988). They measured growth parameters such as relative growth rate (RGR) and net assimilation rate (NAR) of radish in growth chambers, greenhouses, and open fields and found that RGR and NAR from the open field were the lowest. ...
