The tailored absorption/transmission spectra of ST-OSCs impacts the power generated as well as crop growth, development and responses to the biotic and abiotic environments. To characterize crop responses to ST-OSCs, we grew lettuce and tomato, traditional greenhouse crops, under three ST-OSC filters that create different light spectra. Lettuce yield and early tomato development are not negatively affected by the modified light environment. Our genomic analysis reveals that lettuce production exhibits beneficial traits involving nutrient content and nitrogen utilization while select ST-OSCs impact regulation of flowering initiation in tomato. These results suggest that ST-OSCs integrated into greenhouses are not only a promising technology for energy-neutral, sustainable and climate-change protected crop production, but can deliver benefits beyond energy considerations.}, journal={FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE}, author={Charles, Melodi and Edwards, Brianne and Ravishankar, Eshwar and Calero, John and Henry, Reece and Rech, Jeromy and Saravitz, Carole and You, Wei and Ade, Harald and O'Connor, Brendan and et al.}, year={2023}, month={Feb} }

However, there is a need to establish the impact of such systems on plant growth and indoor climate and to optimize system tradeoffs. In this work, we consider plant growth under OSCs and system-relevant design. We evaluate the growth of red leaf lettuce under ST-OSC filters and compare the impact of three different OSC active layers that have unique transmittance. We find no significant differences in the fresh weight and chlorophyll content of the lettuce grown under these OSC filters. In addition, OSCs provide an opportunity for further light and thermal management of the greenhouse through device design and optical coatings. The OSCs can thus affect plant growth, power generation, and thermal load of the greenhouse, and this design trade space is reviewed and exemplified.}, number={3}, journal={CELL REPORTS PHYSICAL SCIENCE}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Ravishankar, Eshwar and Charles, Melodi and Xiong, Yuan and Henry, Reece and Swift, Jennifer and Rech, Jeromy and Calero, John and Cho, Sam and Booth, Ronald E. and Kim, Taesoo and et al.}, year={2021}, month={Mar} }

The genetic structure of populations of P. fijiensis in Costa Rica was examined and compared with Honduran and global populations to better understand migration patterns and inform management strategies. In total, 118 isolates of P. fijiensis collected from Costa Rica and Honduras from 2010 to 2014 were analyzed using multilocus genotyping of six loci and compared with a previously published global dataset of populations of P. fijiensis. The Costa Rican and Honduran populations shared haplotype diversity with haplotypes from Southeast Asia, Oceania, and the Americas but not Africa for all but one of the six loci studied. Gene flow and shared haplotype diversity was found in Honduran and Costa Rican populations of the pathogen. The data indicate that the haplotypic diversity observed in Costa Rican populations of P. fijiensis is derived from dispersal from initial outbreak sources in Honduras and admixtures between genetically differentiated sources from Southeast Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. }, number={12}, journal={Phytopathology}, publisher={Scientific Societies}, author={Saville, Amanda and Charles, Melodi and Chavan, Suchitra and Muñoz, Miguel and Gómez-Alpizar, Luis and Ristaino, Jean Beagle}, year={2017}, month={Dec}, pages={1541–1548} }
