Talk:Photoperiodism

message: Using the {help me} template, I've asked for help with merging at least the three long, short and neutral day plant articles with each other, and possibly merging all three into Photoperiodism.  Over a year is too long for merge templates to sit atop these four articles, IMO!  Interested editors may read my request on my Talk page. - Hordaland (talk) 11:13, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  I've asked for help 

message: Merged Long day plant, Short day plant, and Day neutral plant to Photoperiodism. Someone more familiar with the subject please make sure that everything is completely and correctly presented. Splitting by kingdom would make sense (very few animals flower in the springtime), but until the content is more extensive there is no harm in treating both here. - Eldereft (cont.) 12:37, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

message: A confused student like me likes to know who did ese experiments on photoperiodism cause i heard in the past that they once believed that it is actually the balance of light and darkness that makes a plant flower. yet many books state that "More recently, it has been demonstrated that the initiation of flowering involves hormonal mechanism. Flowering, therefore, is triggered by chemical changes under the influence of light." (A.W. Galston, The life of the Green Plant, 2nd ed., Englewood Cliffs, N.J.: Pinceton Hall, Inc., 1964, Capter 4)
Don't get me wrong but i want to put a 'PERIOD' on this topic once and for all, who did this? which comes first? with enough sources so i can brag my wikipedia research with satisfying references and explanation. Thank you.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.193.193.113 (talk) 14:49, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Who created the experiments that proved that its actually the night not the day? 

message: Maize is given here as a short-day obligate plant – tropical cultivars only, but the article Maize calls it a facultative long-night plant. Somehow it seems implausible that specifically tropical cultivars would be obligate, as the variation in night length vanishes in the tropics. What gives?  --Lambiam 09:04, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Night is critical

message: "Photoperiodism affects flowering the shoot by inducing it to produce floral buds instead of leaves and lateral buds."  
Sentence requires explanation for people like me who don't know what a "shoot" is.  --Hordaland (talk) 16:36, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

message: Per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lepidium_meyenii you might want to add Lepidium meyenii to 'short-day plants' section.

thread_title:  Add Lepidium meyenii to 'short-day plants' 

message: Hi!  I was looking over this page, and I had a few questions regarding its layout.  My first question is about the dates at which long/short day plants grow.  I was wondering if this information was relevant enough to stay in this article.  My second question was about the photoperiodism in animals.  I was curious if narrowing down photoperiodism in animals and making it into a list would be possible.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Npreid31 (talk • contribs) 04:45, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
