Light quantity (intensity and photoperiod) and quality (spectral composition) affect plant
growth and physiology and interact with other environmental parameters and cultivation …

In contrast to the primary metabolism, responsible for essential synthesis mechanisms and
mass balance in plants, the secondary metabolism is not of particular importance for each …

By definition, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) includes wavelengths between 400
and 700 nm and thus, far-red radiation (FR, 700–800 nm) is excluded when the …

Light is a key factor affecting plant growth, metabolism and function. Metabolic processes in
plants are sensitive to the ratio of Blue: Red light, and there is an increasing awareness that …

Plant development and physiology are strongly influenced by the environmental light
spectrum that triggers and controls several functional and structural response in plants …

Lighting technologies for plant growth are improving rapidly, providing numerous options for
supplemental lighting in greenhouses. Here we report the photosynthetic (400–700 nm) …

Light is an important variable affecting the plant growth. In present study, the effects of
different color light-emitting diodes (mixed colors, red, blue, and orange light) on plant …

With the expeditious development of optoelectronics, the light-emitting diode (LED)
technology as supplementary light has shown great advancement in protected cultivation …

Despite decades of research, the effects of spectral quality on plant growth, and
development are not well understood. Much of our current understanding comes from …

Through its impact on morphogenesis, light is the key environmental factor that alters plant
structural development; however, the understanding how light controls plant growth and …
