TestHub · Accepted Answer

The plant which flowers in the equal duration of day and night photoperiod are called a day-neutral plant. The plant which requires a short light period and longer continuous dark period for flowering are called short-day plant. They require a continuous uninterrupted dark period for flowering and fail to flower if the dark period is interrupted by a brief flash of light.
