Ecological significance of shade avoidance in perennial grasses /

The red:far-red ratio (R:FR) of solar radiation is modified from that of ambient by absorption of red (R) and reflection and transmission of far-red (FR) radiation within plant canopies and it is capable of modulating a suite of architectural plant responses described as the shade avoidance syndrome...
