Plant antioxidants are important compounds involved in plant defense, signaling, growth,
and development. The quantity and quality of such compounds is genetically driven; …

Postharvest illumination with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is an emerging, non-chemical,
residue-free technique used to preserve plant commodities. This paper aimed to review …

Light-emitting diode (LED) technology has rapidly advanced the past years and it is
nowadays irrevocably linked with controlled-environment agriculture (CEA). We provide …

Environmental stimuli modulate plant metabolite accumulation, facilitating adaptation to
stressful conditions. In this study, the effects of blue and red light, photoperiod, CO 2 …

Tomato is one of the most widely used vegetables in the world. In Canada, it is
predominantly a greenhouse grown crop during the colder seasons. Hence it is necessary to …

Metabolic profiles of tomatoes change during ripening and light can modulate the activity of
relevant biochemical pathways. We investigated the effects of light directly supplied to the …

Hyperspectral imaging has many applications. However, the high device costs and low
hyperspectral image resolution are major obstacles limiting its wider application in …

L-ascorbate (ASC) is essential for human health. Therefore, there is interest in increasing
the ASC content of crops like tomato. High irradiance induces accumulation of ASC in green …

Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is a strong antioxidant that potentially reduces oxidative damage in
human cells. In this study, the effects of environmental factors such as photoperiod, light …

Currently, light‐emitting diode (LED) technology has produced a more energy‐efficient and
versatile technology as an artificial lighting system that can be applied in the agricultural …
