“…Solar radiation, air humidity, and air temperature in the sheltered covering were reported to be affected by a rainshelter covering [48]. Anthocyanin accumulation was also influenced by microenvironmental changes [49]. Meanwhile, the light quality could affect the synthesis of anthocyanin by regulating the expression patterns of related genes [50].…”

Background: Rain-shelter covering is widely applied during cherry fruit development in subtropical monsoon climates with the aim of decreasing the dropping and cracking of fruit caused by excessive rainfall. Under rainshelter covering, the characteristics of the leaves and fruit of the cherry plant may adapt to the changes in the microclimate. However, the molecular mechanism underlying such adaptation remains unclear, although clarifying it may be helpful for improving the yield and quality of cherry under rain-shelter covering. Results: To better understand the regulation and adaptive mechanism of cherry under rain-shelter covering, 38,621 and 3584 differentially expressed genes were identified with a combination of Illumina HiSeq and single-molecule real-time sequencing in leaves and fruits, respectively, at three developmental stages. Among these, key genes, such as those encoding photosynthetic-antenna proteins (Lhca and Lhcb) and photosynthetic electron transporters (PsbP, PsbR, PsbY, and PetF), were up-regulated following the application of rain-shelter covering, leading to increased efficiency of light utilization. The mRNA levels of genes involved in carbon fixation, namely, rbcL and rbcS, were clearly increased compared with those under shelter-free conditions, resulting in improved CO 2 utilization. Furthermore, the transcription levels of genes involved in chlorophyll (hemA, hemN, and chlH) and carotenoid synthesis (crtB, PDS, crtISO, and lcyB) in the sheltered leaves peaked earlier than those in the unsheltered leaves, thereby promoting organic matter accumulation in leaves. Remarkably, the expression levels of key genes involved in the metabolic pathways of phenylpropanoid (PAL, C4H, and 4CL) and flavonoid (CHS, CHI, F3'H, DFR, and ANS) in the sheltered fruits were also up-regulated earlier than of those in the unsheltered fruits, conducive to an increase in anthocyanin content in the fruits. Conclusions: According to the physiological indicators and transcriptional expression levels of the related genes, the adaptive regulation mechanism of cherry plants was systematically revealed. These findings can help understand the effect of rain-shelter covering on Chinese cherry cultivation in rainy regions.

“…The studies about light quality affecting strawberry aroma and qualities mainly focused on R and B light which were supplied with light-emitting diode (LED). 8,27,28 Colored light-quality selective plastic films can also supply different light qualities and are more suitable than LED system in field production, due to the high cost and inconvenience of LED system and unstable effects of nature lights. 29 To produce highly aromatic strawberry by using optimal colored light-quality selective plastic film, the aroma emission and key gene expression were investigated in the fruits under transparent (T), R, yellow (Y), green (G), B, and purple (P) light selective plastic films.…”

“…44 Anthocyanins are responsible for red or purple coloration in a variety of fruits, are major pigments in strawberry, and are beneficial to human health as antioxidant agents. 29,45 Zhang et al 28 found that R light and RB light induced the strawberry coloration earlier by increasing the content of total anthocyanins. Miao et al 29 reported that R film significantly increased the content of total anthocyanins in strawberry, while G and B films showed inhibitory effects.…”

Strawberry aroma is beneficial to the quality of the fruits and derived foods, as well as consumer health. Light quality affects strawberry aroma emission, which can be conveniently supplied by colored light‐quality selective plastic films. To produce high‐aroma strawberry by using optical colored light‐quality selective plastic film, the aroma emission and key gene expression were investigated under transparent (T), red (R), yellow (Y), green (G), blue (B), and purple (P) films. Moreover, the content of sugar, soluble proteins, and anthocyanins as well as total titratable acidity was also investigated. Strawberry released an abundance of aroma, mainly including esters, terpenoids, alkanes, alcohols, acids, aldehydes, and ketones. T, R, and Y films increased FaAAT (alcohol acyltransferase) expression to promote ester emission. Among strawberry aroma components, trans‐nerolidol showed the maximum emission amount. R film promoted its emission by increasing FaNES1 (nerolidol synthase) expression. Meanwhile, R film was also beneficial to the accumulation of reducing sugar, sucrose, total sugar, anthocyanins, and soluble proteins, and total titratable acidity. Therefore, high‐aroma strawberry can be produced by using R light selective plastic film, with increasing fruit chemical properties.
