“…Chl reduction was observed under red light as a result of a decrease in aminolevulinic acid (Tanaka et al, 1998;Sood et al, 2005), PPIX, MGPP, and Pchlide (Fan et al, 2013). In our study, porphyrin levels were not reduced by red light (Fig.…”

“…Meanwhile, both Chls and Cars have low light absorption at 530-610 nm. Previous studies (Nhut et al, 2003;Lee et al, 2007;Johkan et al, 2010;Guo et al, 2011;Lin et al, 2011;Liu et al, 2011;Fan et al, 2013, Hoffmann et al, 2015Hoffmann et al, 2016) have demonstrated that blue light induced the synthesis of Chl and Car. In our study, the concentrations of Chl and Car were greater under FL, B, and RB treatments, with the exception of (Table 1).…”

“…Light quality also influences the mole percentages of these three precursors. According to Fan et al (2013), green light increases the mole percentage of PPIX but decreases the mole percentage of MGPP and Pchlide. Nevertheless, our results demonstrate that the mole percentages of the three precursors were insignificant among all treatments except for 'TCS10' under B, and Chl biosynthetic intermediates under light quality did not affect the Chl biosynthetic pathway (Fig.…”

“…Blue light induces higher Chl a/b ratios (Rivkin, 1989;Demarsac et al, 1993;Chen et al, 2014;Hoffmann et al, 2015) and greater accumulations of Chl (Kurilčik et al, 2008;Poudel et al, 2008;Hoffmann et al, 2016). Red light inhibits Chl synthesis at lower concentrations of Chl and precursors like 5-aminolevulinic acid (Tanaka et al, 1998;Sood et al, 2005), protoporphyrin IX (PPIX), magnesium protoporphyrin IX (MGPP), and protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) (Fan et al, 2013). Moreover, the mole percentages of PPIX, MGPP, and Pchlide also respond to various physiological conditions and genotypes Hsu et al, 2011;Huang et al, 2014).…”

The objective of this study was to investigate the dynamics of chlorophyll (Chl), biosynthetic intermediates (protoporphyrin IX, magnesium protoporphyrin IX, and protochlorophyllide), degradation intermediates [chlorophyllide (Chlide), pheophytin (Phe), and pheophorbide (Pho)], and carotenoids (Car) in leaves of rice seedlings. Two rice varieties, 'Taichung Shen 10' ('TCS10') and 'IR1552', were grown under different light quality conditions controlled by light emitting diodes (LED). Lighting treatments for rice seedlings were included by red (R), blue (B), green (G), and red + blue (RB), with fluorescent lighting (FL) as the control and photosynthetic photon flux density being set at 105 μmol m -2 s -1 . The results show that lower levels of Chl and Car in leaves were detected under G lighting, and light quality did not mediate porphyrins in biosynthetic pathways. Rice seedling leaves took Chl→Phe→Pho and Chl→Chlide→Pho as the major and minor degradation routes, respectively. Furthermore, higher Phe/Chlide ratios were observed under G and FL lighting conditions, indicating that green-enriched environments can up-regulate the minor degradation route in leaves.

“…Several studies suggested that red light inhibited the formation of chlorophyll because 5-aminolevulinic acid, a biosynthetic precursor to chlorophyll, was reduced under red light (Tanaka et al, 1998;Sood et al, 2005). Blue light was reported to play a crucial role in the formation and accumulation of chlorophylls (Dougher and Bugbee, 1997;Li et al, 2012;Fan et al, 2013). Therefore, in this study, the higher chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a/b ratio under RB and B may have resulted from the effect of blue light on chlorophyll biosynthesis.…”

Light quality can influence the photosynthetic characteristics, morphology and physiological processes of plants. To investigate the effects of different light qualities (white light, W; red light, R; blue light, B; mixture of red and blue light, RB) of light emitting diodes (LEDs) and white cold fluorescent lamp on the growth and morphology of fruiting mulberry plants (Morus alba L. cv. 'Longsang No.1'), fruiting mulberry plants were grown under different light qualities: W, R, B and RB of the same photosynthetic photo flux density (PPFD; 100 μmol m -2 s -1 ) for 20 d. Our results showed that stem length and leaf area of plants grown under R were the highest. However, stem length and leaf area of plants grown under B were lowest. Dry weights (DW), leaf mass per area (LMA), chlorophyll a/b ratio, soluble protein content, sucrose and starch content, and total leaf nitrogen (N) content of plants grown under R were the lowest. Net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (gs), and actual photochemical efficiency of PSII (ΦPSII) of plants grown under RB were similar to plants grown under W. Net photosynthetic rate (Pn) and ΦPSII of plants grown under R and B were lower than plants grown under W and RB. Antioxidant enzymes activity of plants grown under R, RB and B were higher than plants grown under W. The number of leaf stomata, leaf thickness, palisade tissue length and spongy tissue length were the lowest in plants grown under R. The number of leaf stomata, leaf thickness and palisade tissue length of plants grown under RB and B were higher than plants grown under R. The results of this study indicate that a certain ratio of mixed red and blue LEDs light can reduce adverse effects of monochromatic red and blue LEDs light on fruiting mulberry growth and development.
