| abstract |
In one embodiment, the present invention provides methods for applying light to plants and plant parts (such as flowers, fruits) to modulate pigment accumulation, (i.e., color), stature, photomorphogenic responses, nutraceutical content, flavor, and/or aroma of plants or plant parts. Also provided are software and/or control devices for plant lighting systems (such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs)) that can be used to modulate pigment accumulation, stature, photomorphogenic responses, nutraceutical content, flavor, and/or aroma of plants or plant parts. |
