Characteristics of the three different environmental conditions where the seedlings of H. courbaril were grown

Environment	R : FR*	Air humidity (%)	PPFD† (µmol m−2 s−1)	Air temperature (°C)
Greenhouse	1·2	59 ± 19	670	28 ± 6
Growth room	1·4	61 ± 18	194	23 ± 2
Forest	0·5	76 ± 10	22‡	22 ± 2

^*Red-to-far red ratio measured at the same time as PPFD.

^†PPFD (photosynthetically active photon flux density) measured at about 1200 h.

^‡The forest environment also showed sunflecks within the range 200–700 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹ PPFD.
