The study looked at how shading affects the growth and health of Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus seedlings. Different levels of shading were tested, and it was found that 35% shading was best for photosynthesis and growth. Under 35% shading, the seedlings had the highest photosynthetic rate and chlorophyll content, leading to better growth. On the other hand, 75% shading reduced photosynthesis significantly. This means that moderate shading is good for the early growth of these plants.
