“…In one of our earlier studies, we observed that blue or red LED irradiation stimulated sugar synthesis in grape berries, and this may have depended on the promotion of the photosynthesis rate in leaves; our findings also showed that blue LED irradiation stimulated anthocyanin synthesis through MYB and UFGT genes in grapes [16]. Plant MYBs can regulate secondary metabolites such as anthocyanins, and MybA influences the production of anthocyanins and UFGT, which is one of the structural genes in anthocyanin synthesis [17].…”

“…A previous report noted that blue LED irradiation was effective in increasing anthocyanin synthesis in lettuce and strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duchesne) [32,33]. In our earlier study of grapes, blue LED irradiation at night was found to be more effective in producing anthocyanins than red LED irradiation [16]. The finding that blue LED irradiation did not stimulate anthocyanin formation suggests that the PPF of blue LED light at night may not be sufficient for anthocyanin accumulation in apples.…”

“…Each plastic pot was watered daily with 20 L tap water. The trees in the first group were irradiated with red LED light (Shibasaki, Inc., Saitama, Japan; peak wavelength 660 nm) for 3 h before sunrise and 3 h after sunset (this regimen had a positive effect on the anthocyanin synthesis of grape berries [16]) from 60−142 days after full bloom (DAFB).…”

“…The anthocyanin concentrations were analyzed with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and an HPLC mass spectrometer (model LCMS-2010 EV; Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) with a Mightysil RP-18 ODS column according to the method described by Kondo et al [16] and Wang et al [20]. Total anthocyanin concentrations are expressed as cyanidin 3-O-galactoside.…”

-Introduction.Anthocyanins are a group of flavonoids, and their synthesis is influenced by external and internal factors such as light, temperature, phytohormones and sugar concentration. A high anthocyanin concentration, which is related to redder coloration, is one of the factors of high-quality fruit. The effects of LED irradiation on the anthocyanin concentration and enzymatic and antioxidant activities in apple skin were studied. Materials and methods. Nine 8-year-old 'Tsugaru' apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh.) grafted onto Malling26 (M.26 EMLA) rootstocks planted in 45-L plastic pots covered with polyvinyl film (90% transmittance) and grown in a greenhouse were used. The effects of red or blue light-emitting diode (LED) irradiation on anthocyanin accumulation, the expression of Md-MYB10 and UDP-glucose-flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase (MdUFGT) and superoxide anion radical (O − 2 ) scavenging activity in the skin of 'Tsugaru' apples were investigated under early heating cultivation in a greenhouse. Results and discussion. The anthocyanin concentrations in red LEDtreated apples were increased compared with those of the blue LEDtreated apples and the untreated control at 130 days after full bloom (DAFB). The relative expression of MdMYB10 and MdUFGT genes at 130 DAFB was also highest in the skin of apples treated with red LED light. The skin of apple fruits treated with red or blue LED light showed significantly low EC 50 values. Conclusion. These results suggest that red LED irradiation may be used in a controlled environment such as a greenhouse to increase the anthocyanin synthesis and antioxidant activity in apple skin.Keywords: Japan / apple / Malus domestica / light treatment / phenolics / secondary metabolism / fruit quality Résumé -Concentration en anthocyanes et activité anti-oxydante des pommes traitées aux diodes électrolu-minescentes (LED) en système de serre à environnement contrôlé. Introduction. Les anthocyanes sont un type de flavonoïdes dont la synthèse est influencée par des facteurs internes et externes tels que la lumière, la température, les phytohormones et la concentration en sucre. Une concentration en anthocyanes élevée, liée à la coloration rouge, est un des critères de grande qualité des fruits. Les effets de l'éclairage LED ont été étudiés sur la concentration en anthocyanes et sur les activités enzymatiques et anti-oxydantes dans la peau de la pomme. Matériel et méthodes. Neuf pommiers âgés de 8 ans (Malus domestica Borkh., cv. Tsugaru) greffés sur 'Malling 26' (M.26 EMLA) et plantés en pots de 45 L recouverts de film de vinyle (90 % de transmission) ont été cultivés en serre pour cette étude. Les effets d'un éclairage LED rouge ou bleu sur l'accumulation des anthocyanes, l'expression des enzymes MdMYB10 et UDPglucose-flavonoïde 3-O-glucosyltransférase (MdUFGT), et l'activité de piégeage du radical superoxyde (EC 50 ) dans la peau des pommes 'Tsugaru' ont été étudiés en culture sous serre au début de la période de chauffage. Résultats et discussion. Les concentrations...

Based on available literature, ecology and economy of light emitting diode (LED) lights in plant foods production were assessed and compared to high pressure sodium (HPS) and compact fluorescent light (CFL) lamps. The assessment summarises that LEDs are superior compared to other lamp types. LEDs are ideal in luminous efficiency, life span and electricity usage. Mercury, carbon dioxide and heat emissions are also lowest in comparison to HPS and CFL lamps. This indicates that LEDs are indeed economic and eco-friendly lighting devices. The present review indicates also that LEDs have many practical benefits compared to other lamp types. In addition, they are applicable in many purposes in plant foods production. The main focus of the review is the targeted use of LEDs in order to enrich phytochemicals in plants. This is an expedient to massive improvement in production efficiency, since it diminishes the number of plants per phytochemical unit. Consequently, any other production costs (e.g. growing space, water, nutrient and transport) may be reduced markedly. Finally, 24 research articles published between 2013 and 2017 were reviewed for targeted use of LEDs in the specific, i.e. blue range (400-500 nm) of spectrum. The articles indicate that blue light is efficient in enhancing the accumulation of health beneficial phytochemicals in various species. The finding is important for global food production. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
