UVA, UVB Light, and Methyl Jasmonate, Alone or Combined, Redirect the Biosynthesis of Glucosinolates, Phenolics, Carotenoids, and Chlorophylls in Broccoli Sprouts

Abstract: Broccoli sprouts contain health-promoting phytochemicals that can be enhanced by applying ultraviolet light (UV) or phytohormones. The separate and combined effects of methyl jasmonate (MJ), UVA, or UVB lights on glucosinolate, phenolic, carotenoid, and chlorophyll profiles were assessed in broccoli sprouts. Seven-day-old broccoli sprouts were exposed to UVA (9.47 W/m2) or UVB (7.16 W/m2) radiation for 120 min alone or in combination with a 25 µM MJ solution, also applied to sprouts without UV supplementation.… Show more

“…Blue light can influence the accumulation of phenolic content of Lachenalia species [19], while red light can influence the phenolic content of Brassica oleracea [14]. UV light affect the phenolics and pigment content of broccoli sprouts [40], carrots [41], Vigna radiate sprouts [42], Gracilaria chilensis [43], Capsicum chinense [44], and Solanum lycopersicum [45]. High light intensity affects the phenolic and flavonoid content of Salvia plebeia [46], Brassica species [47] and L. sativa [48].…”

“…Oleuropein constituents are best known for their blood pressure-lowering effects, but the latest studies reveal their health benefits extend well beyond that. Additional anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties offer promise in fighting atherosclerosis, diabetes, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and even arthritis [17][18][19][20][21][22]. Among the ten analyzed varieties, the amount of oleuropein in olive leaves was higher in August and lower in November.…”

“…Our group was the first one to propose that controlled postharvest abiotic stresses could be used as tools to obtain healthier products in the fresh produce, food processing, and dietary supplement industries as well as to increase extractable nutraceutical yields (Cisneros‐Zevallos, ). Since then, we have evaluated the effect of different abiotic stresses (wounding, water loss, modified atmospheres, UV light, and phytohormones) on the accumulation of health‐promoting compounds in several crops including carrot (Becerra‐Moreno et al., ; Becerra‐Moreno, Benavides, Cisneros‐Zevallos, & Jacobo‐Velázquez, ; Jacobo‐Velázquez et al., ; Surjadinata & Cisneros‐Zevallos, ; Surjadinata, Jacobo‐Velázquez, & Cisneros‐Zevallos, ), broccoli (Moreira‐Rodríguez, Nair, Benavides, Cisneros‐Zevallos, & Jacobo‐Velázquez, ; Torres‐Contreras, Nair, Cisneros‐Zevallos, & Jacobo‐Velázquez, ), potatoes (Reyes & Cisneros‐Zevallos, ; Torres‐Contreras, Nair, Cisneros‐Zevallos, & Jacobo‐Velázquez, ), lettuce (He et al., ), among others (Heredia & Cisneros‐Zevallos, ; Reyes, Villarreal, & Cisneros‐Zevallos, ) with promising results. Other authors have also applied abiotic stresses, such as UV light, ozone, phytohormones, and wounding, to enhance the accumulation of phenolic compounds, anthocyanins, vitamin C, and carotenoids in fresh produce including strawberry (Severo, de Oliveira, Tiecher, Chaves, & Rombaldi, ), grapes (Carbone & Mencarelli, ; Pinto et al., ), tomato (Castagna et al., ; Liu et al., ), and pitaya fruit (Li et al., ).…”
