Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation and bioavailability of dietary carotenoids in vegetable crops.
Dean A. Kopsell,David E. Kopsell +1 more
TL;DR: Bioavailability data emphasize the importance of carotenoid enhancement in vegetable crops and the need to characterize potential changes in carotENoid composition during cultivation, storage and processing before consumer purchase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Irradiance from Distinct Wavelength Light-emitting Diodes Affect Secondary Metabolites in Kale
TL;DR: Wavelength control using LED technology can affect the production of secondary metabolites such as carotenoids and glucosinolates with irradiance levels also a factor in kale, and management of irradiance and wavelength may hold promise to maximize nutritional potential of vegetable crops grown in controlled environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in Lutein, β-carotene, and Chlorophyll Concentrations among Brassica oleracea Cultigens and Seasons
TL;DR: Carotenoid concentrations were significantly higher in year 2 than in year 1, but rank order among the cultigens for both lutein and s-carotene did not change between the years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in Kale (Brassica oleracea L. var. acephala) Carotenoid and Chlorophyll Pigment Concentrations during Leaf Ontogeny
TL;DR: Mature fully expanded kale leaves accumulated higher carotenoid concentrations than immature or “baby” leaves, with senescent leaves having the lowestCarotenoids concentrations.
