Abstract
We investigated effects of concentration and duration were investigated in order to promote efficiency of $CO_2$ enrichment in winter. The treatments were conducted with two levels of $CO_2$ concentration, namely 400 ppm, 700 ppm, two levels of duration, 3 h (9:00-12:00), 6 h (9:00-15:00), and control (nonenrichment $CO_2$). Fresh weight of leaves increased under longer exposure to $CO_2$ and higher $CO_2$ concentration. Fresh weight of stem and root increased under longer exposure to $CO_2$, but decreased under higher $CO_2$ concentration. Total dry weight increased under longer exposure to $CO_2$ and higher $CO_2$ concentration. Combination treatment of longer exposure to $CO_2$ and higher $CO_2$ concentration showed the largest decrease of Root : Shoot dry weight ratio. The $700ppm{\times}6h$ treatment showed higher fruit number and yield than control. The results suggested that the growth under longer exposure to 400 ppm $CO_2$ was better than that under higher $CO_2$ concentration.
