The Research Progress on the Effects of Red and Blue Light on Glucosinolate Content in Cruciferous Vegetables
Cruciferous vegetables are an important group of vegetables rich in nutrition and bioactive substances,among which glucosinolates ( commonly referred to as glucosides) are one of the characteristic secondary metabolites,which have antioxidant,anti-inflammatory and anticancer effects on the human body. With the increasing attention to the quality and nutritional value of vegetables,increasing the glucosinolates content in cruciferous vegetables by light environment regulation has been gotten more attention in recent years. As the primary light qualities for plant growth,red and blue light are also low-cost and efficient light sources in plant factories. Compared to ultraviolet and far-red light,they have a broader practical application value. This article reviews the effects of red and blue light on the glucosinolates content in cruciferous vegetables,and analyzes the molecular mechanism of glucosinolates regulation in cruciferous vegetables from the perspective of key gene expression and related transcription factors. The review provides a theoretical foundation for light regulation of glucosinolate synthesis and metabolism,to improve the nutritional quality and to produce cruciferous vegetables with high content of beneficial glucosinolate.
