Plant growth chambers

The Plant Growth Facility contains 14 plant growth chambers.  Eight of the chambers use a home built digital recording system to document the CO2 and Ozone concentrations in the chambers and are used by the Genomic Ecology of Global change theme.  Six of the plant growth chambers were purchased by the Energy Biosciences Institute and are used to study plants that can be used as alternate energy sources.
