Postharvest light and temperature elicitors improve chemical composition and level of essential oils in basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) through boosting antioxidant machinery

Harnessing postharvest light emitting diode (LED) technology of Centella asiatica (L.) Urb. to improve centelloside content by up-regulating gene expressions in the triterpenoid pathway

“…sativus ) and brahmi ( Bacopa monnieri (L.) Pennell), and C. asiatica [ 19 , 22 , 30 ]. Results showed that red and blue LED irradiation exhibited higher growth performance and bioactive compound accumulation than under white LEDs (normally used as the control) or other LEDs [ 19 , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] ], while postharvest treatment by blue LEDs on C. asiatica showed highest total centelloside content. White LED irradiation increased total centelloside content but was less effective than blue LEDs.…”
