Light Spectrum Differentially Affects the Yield and Phytochemical Content of Microgreen Vegetables in a Plant Factory

Plants, 2021
Light quality exerts considerable effects on crop development and phytochemical content. Moreover, crops grown as microgreens are ideal for plant factories with artificial lighting, since they contain greater amounts of bioactive compounds compared to ...

Phytochrome-Mediated Cellular Photomorphogenesis [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1983
Red light-induced cell elongation and division in intact, etiolated oat (Avena sativa cv Lodi) seedlings have been assessed. The middle of coleoptile was especially responsive in the very low fluence range whereas the region immediately below the coleoptile tip and the two regions just above the coleoptilar node were more responsive than the entire ...

Gibberellins Repress Photomorphogenesis in Darkness [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2004
Abstract Plants undergo two different developmental programs depending on whether they are growing in darkness (skotomorphogenesis) or in the presence of light (photomorphogenesis). It has been proposed that the latter is the default pathway followed by many plants after germination and before the seedling emerges from soil.

Role of strigolactones: Signalling and crosstalk with other phytohormones

Open Life Sciences, 2020
Plant hormones play important roles in controlling how plants grow and develop. While metabolism provides the energy needed for plant survival, hormones regulate the pace of plant growth.

Plant Growth in LED-Sourced Biophilic Environments Is Improved by the Biochar Amendment of Low-Fertility Soil, the Reflection of Low-Intensity Light, and a Continuous Photoperiod

Plants, 2023
Introducing plants in the design of biophilic indoor environments is fundamental for improving human health, well-being, and performance. Previous studies showed that the phenotype of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana grown under LED-sourced CoeLux ...

Photomorphogenesis and Photoreceptors

, 2016
Plants use light as their main source of energy and to gather information about their surroundings. The light environment is monitored through an extensive set of photoreceptors and largely dictates plant development through induction of processes such as germination and flowering, entrainment of the circadian clock and photomorphogenic responses ...

Effects of Light and Wounding on Jasmonates in Rice phyAphyC Mutants

Plants, 2014
Jasmonates (JA) are lipid-derived plant hormones. They have been shown to be important regulators of photomorphogenesis, a developmental program in plants, which is activated by light through different red and blue light sensitive photoreceptors. In rice,

Brassinosteroids (BRs) and photomorphogenesis: Hormonal regulation of light-mediated plant development

Environmental and Experimental Botany
To adapt to varying environmental conditions, plants have developed complex mechanisms to optimize growth and development throughout their lifecycles. Light is the primary energy source that drives photosynthesis and act as an environmental signal, which

Seasonal Efficiency of Supplemental LED Lighting on Growth and Photomorphogenesis of Sweet Basil

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
For decisions on supplemental lighting a quantitative knowledge of the plants' responses to light under varying conditions is fundamental. In this study, we developed light dose-response curves of growth and morphological traits for Ocimum basilicum L ...

Photomorphogenesis and content of carbohydrates in the axial organs of field pean seedlings under the influence of selective light

Біофізичний вісник, 2022
Background: Light is a multifaceted exogenous factor that plays an important role in plant growth and development. The spectral composition of light is determinative for the regulation of photomorphogenetic processes in plants.
