1 Its photoperiodic reaction is short-day one.

2 Chrysanthemums are short-day plants, most of them are bloom in autumn, which makes it very difficulty to the year-round production of cut chrysanthemum.

3 Rice is a short-day (SD) monocot, whereas cucumber is a mid-day (MD) dicotyledon.

4 The effect of short-day photoperiod is evident in the vernalization process on the ecotype of winter wheat varieties.

5 Months of short-day have possibility to planting this spring wheat in regions of suitable temperature.

6 As a short-day and temperature-bias plant, Soybean variety is sensitive to photoperiod and temperature,[] which account for its narrow plant area.

7 We therefore say that temperate plants are long-day plants while tropical plants are short-day plants.

8 The vernalized plants can finish the development stages of floral organ and floral stalk, no matter long-day or short-day.

9 Phytochromes mediate the photoperiodic control of flowering in rice (Oryza sativa), a short-day plant.

10 In contrast with nature sunshine, reaction of 4 rice varieties to short-day sunshine in 7 development period in the plastic shed was studied comparatively.

11 When larvae in early stadia were reared in the short-day condition, their growth and development usually show both temporary delay in the later instar and relative prolongation of whole larval stage.
