“…Results from Solanaceae plants grown under different R: B ratios showed that modifying the R: B spectral distribution is crucial for flowering and fruit-setting attributes [5]. A recent study in pepper demonstrated that R-and B-light directly affected plant growth, photosynthetic characteristics and flowering time, with R light promoting pepper fruit coloration through increased pigment accumulation [6,7]. These evidences indicate that comprehensive research on fine tuning the light quantity and quality properties is necessary to meet the light requirements of the plants more accurately and maximize their productivity and quality.…”

The lengthy maturation period is the key cause of the reduced hot pepper market value. An experiment was performed to assess the effects of R/B/W light qualities on reducing the maturation period. The maturation period was shortened by 16 days under 4R:1B:5W compared to the control. The appearance of the first flower is a limiting factor affecting the maturation period. It exhibited a dark purple color and an abnormal petal under 4R:1B:5W compared to the control, which was associated with increased contents of flavonoids, total organic acids, and phenolics and decreased total amino acid and carbohydrate contents. Plant hormone, flavonoid, ABC transporters, key metabolites (such as amino acid, carbohydrate, organic acid) was associated with first flower development. Ethylene response factors (ERFs) mediated by light, especially ERF021, were identified as potential hub regulators during the development of the first flower due to their involvement in all the associated metabolic pathways.
