Growth Media

pepper seedling substrate (artificial climate chamber)

Temperature 28 °C

Preparation notes: Relative humidity 80%. Seeds germinated on 0.5x MS in the dark at 30°C for 36 h; seedlings pre-grown on 0.5x MS solution at 28°C, 80% humidity, 16 h light/8 h dark. SynCom members pre-cultured before inoculation: bacteria in liquid LB at 37°C, 170 rpm for 24 h; fungi in liquid PDA at 28°C, 170 rpm for 5 days. PPFD reported in source as 300 mmol m2 s−1.

Evidence

PMID:39858916

"They were cultivated for 5 days in an artificial climate chamber with the following conditions: 16 h of light at 28 °C and 8 h of dark at 28 °C, ensuring a photosynthetic photon flux density of 300 mmol m2 s−1 and a constant relative humidity of 80%"
