Development of storage roots in radish (Raphanus sativus) plants as affected by light quality

TLDR
The levels of two phytohormones, indole-3-acetate and zeatin plusZeatin riboside were found to be several-fold higher in roots of blue light-grown plants compared with red light- grown ones, which obviously create a higher sink demand from roots to leaves in blue light -grown plants, which facilitate the development of under-ground storage tissues.

An Update on Plant Photobiology and Implications for Cannabis Production

TL;DR: By manipulating LED light spectra and stimulating specific plant photoreceptors, it may be possible to minimize operation costs while maximizing cannabis biomass and cannabinoid yield, including tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol for medicinal and recreational purposes.

Usage and control of solid-state lighting for plant growth

Paulo Pinho
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of the radiation emitted by spectrally tailored LED luminaires on plant growth have been investigated, and two basic approaches were used to investigate the effects and the future possibilities of the usage of solid-state lighting (SSL) in plant growth.

Effects of light quality, light intensity, and photoperiod on growth and yield of cherry radish grown under red plus blue LEDs

TL;DR: The results indicated that light regime in combination with a light intensity between 240 and 300 μmol m−2 s−1, the light quality 2R:1B, and a 16 h/8 h photoperiod produced appropriate growth of cherry radish in plant factory settings using an LED light source.

Specific distribution of gibberellins, cytokinins, indole-3-acetic acid, and abscisic acid in radish plants closely correlates with photomorphogenetic responses to blue or red light

TL;DR: Findings indicate that both IAA and cytokinins are involved in tuber initiation regardless of light quality, while cytokin ins appear to stimulate the assimilate flow to developing storage tissue.

Application of photo‐selective films to manipulate wavelength of transmitted radiation and photosynthate composition in red beet (Beta vulgaris var. conditiva Alef.)

TL;DR: Red beet showed a strong plasticity in its adaptation to light availability by modifying the amount and quality of the light, principally with GREEN photo-selective films.

Colorimetric Method for Determination of Sugars and Related Substances

TL;DR: In this article, a method was developed to determine submicro amounts of sugars and related substances using a phenol-sulfuric acid reaction, which is useful for the determination of the composition of polysaccharides and their methyl derivatives.

Effects of source‐sink relations on photosynthetic acclimation to elevated CO2

TL;DR: The data presented in this paper suggest that plants growing in the field will maintain a high photosynthetic capacity as the atmospheric CO2 level continues to rise.

Subcellular Metabolite Levels in Spinach Leaves : Regulation of Sucrose Synthesis during Diurnal Alterations in Photosynthetic Partitioning.

TL;DR: The results provide direct evidence for the role of sucrose phosphate synthase and cytosolic fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase in regulating sucrose synthesis in leaves and also show that the phosphate translocator is kinetically limiting in vivo.

Rapid Suppression of Growth by Blue Light: OCCURRENCE, TIME COURSE, AND GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

TL;DR: The inhibition of stem elongation in dark-grown seedlings by blue light was studied with marking techniques and with a high-resolution, growth-measuring apparatus to show that, after a short lag period, the growth rate declines in an exponential fashion to a lower rate.
