The compounds in bold font had the same reaction norm for both strains (Group 1: Absence of drop collapse at lower respiration rates when exposed to blue LEDs compared with the other light regimes; Group 2: Absence of drop collapse when exposed to blue LEDs, but respiration rates comparable between the four light regimes; Group 3: Absence of drop collapse at low respiration rates when exposed to either blue or white LEDs; Group 4: Absence of drop collapse when exposed to either blue or white LEDs with lower respiration for blue and maintained for white LED treatments; Group 5: Enhanced drop collapse when exposed to blue LED, but not to other light regimes). N, nitrogen; P, phosphorus; S, sulfur.
