Results are reported from studies on the effects of exposure to light and temperature on seed germination, plant growth, and flowering of winter barley (Hordeum vulgare). Emphasis was placed on studies on the effects of short wave solar radiation and the effects of atmospheric ozone on light tramsmission from November through May at Panama, Tallahassee, and Rockville.
