Abstract
Guidelines for measuring and reporting environmental conditions in plant growth chambers are presented in tabular form. These guidelines are recommended by the North Central Region (NCR‐101) Technical Committee on Growth Chamber Use, a committee formed under the Cooperative Research Program of the State Agricultural Experiment Stations (SAES) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Recommendations on location and frequency of measurements as well as suggested format and units of measurement are listed for each environmental parameter. The adoption of these standardized guidelines should greatly improve the uniformity of research conducted in controlled environments and facilitate comparison of experimental results obtained in studies conducted in different laboratories on a world‐wide basis.Keywords
