Sun light creates plants, so arguably every plant’s growth is all about capturing the optimal amount of sun, moisture and nutrients that its particular plant species needs. But conversely, are plants entirely oblivious to moon light? Or can you see in the way some species grow that they also attempt to capture some degree of nocturnal luminescence?
In: Biology
Plants use any light for photosynthesis.
but moonlight is about 100000 times weaker than sunlight, and capturing it is the same as sunlight so no plants optimize for it.
therw is some evidence that they base some cycles on it though and apparently it can impact growth
