A review on smart application of supplemental lighting in greenhouse fruiting vegetable production
摘要： Different spectra of light trigger different plant growth processes. Therefore, the optimum light spectrum for various plant physiological and growth processes may be different. For greenhouse fruiting vegetables, such as tomatoes, it is important to optimize light spectrum to promote canopy growth to increase light interception during the early stage of plant growth. Once the plants reach full canopy, the focus should be moved to optimizing vertical light distribution because most greenhouse fruiting vegetables are tall crops and the growth processes along the vertical profile are different; most of the canopy growth occurs in the top and middle canopy while fruit growth occurs in the middle and bottom canopy. Because the fruit, not the leaf, is the economic product, the optimized light spectral composition should enhance leaf carbon export and translocation to fruit to improve fruit yield and quality. Therefore, a research project was initiated in 2013 to identify proper light spectral composition and vertical distribution regimes for greenhouse fruiting vegetable production. Different overhead light sources (high-pressure sodium light with or without far-red light-emitting diode (LED) light, plasma light and different spectral compositions of LEDs) and several intra-canopy spectral compositions provided by LEDs were evaluated over four winters on tomatoes, mini-cucumbers and sweet peppers. The effects of light spectrum on whole-plant net carbon exchange and leaf carbon export using 14C-isotype tracing were also investigated. The vertical light regimes resulted in significant differences in leaf photosynthetic rate, leaf size, fruit yield and fruit quality in greenhouse tomatoes, mini-cucumbers and sweet peppers. Proper vertical light regimes were identified for hybrid light systems (overhead high intensity discharge light + intra-canopy LEDs) and for pure LED light systems (overhead + intra-canopy LEDs). This review clearly demonstrates that optimized vertical light regimes can be developed for improving both plant growth and fruit yield and quality in year-round greenhouse fruiting vegetable production.

Supplemental intracanopy far-red radiation to red LED light improves fruit quality attributes of greenhouse tomatoes
摘要： Off-season greenhouse tomatoes have a poor reputation relative to their in-season, field-grown counterparts. Previously, we reported that supplemental intracanopy far-red (700–800 nm, FR) radiation in addition to red (600–700 nm, R) light with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) significantly decreased fruit water content compared to R LEDs alone and high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps, the most common supplemental lighting used in commercial greenhouses. We hypothesize that supplemental R + FR LEDs during production improves fruit quality attributes (i.e., physicochemical properties, mineral concentrations, and sensory properties) in greenhouse tomatoes compared to R LEDs and HPS lamps. Both intracanopy LED lights increased fruit yield and biomass compared to HPS lamps. R LEDs increased dry matter ratio and improved overall physicochemical proprieties such as total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), and pH; however, R + FR LEDs had more significant effects on all measured attributes than did R LEDs. Similarly, R LEDs increased potassium, magnesium, and calcium content in whole fruit by 30, 74, and 40% compared to HPS lamps, and the addition of FR to R LEDs further increased sodium (Na) content and concentration. Consumer sensory panelists rated higher for sensory attributes (aroma, sweetness, acidity, and texture) of R + FR LED-supplemented tomatoes on a hedonic scale compared to R LED-supplemented ones. Importantly, HPS lamp-supplemented tomatoes had the least desirable quality attributes even when compared at the same ripe stage as LED-supplemented ones. Energy use efficiency (EUE) was not different between R + FR LEDs and R LEDs, which was 5 times higher than that of HPS lamps. Our results demonstrate for the first time that fruit quality attributes of greenhouse tomatoes can be improved by supplemental intracanopy lighting with R + FR LEDs to a degree that consumer panelists could perceive the differences. Therefore, we conclude that supplemental R + FR LEDs is indispensable for improving fruit quality of greenhouse tomatoes during off-season production.

Overhead supplemental far-red light stimulates tomato growth under intra-canopy lighting with LEDs
摘要： Far-red (FR) light regulates phytochrome-mediated morphological and physiological plant responses. This study aims to investigate how greenhouse tomato morphology and production response to different durations of FR light during daytime and at the end of day (EOD). High-wire tomato plants were grown under intra-canopy lighting consisting of red (peak wavelength at 640 nm) and blue (peak wavelength at 450 nm) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) of 144 μmol m–2 s–1 at 10 cm away from the lamps, and combined with overhead supplemental FR light (peak wavelength at 735 nm) with PPFD of 43 μmol m–2 s–1 at 20 cm below the lamps. Plants were exposed to three durations of FR supplemental lighting including: 06:00–18:00 (FR12), 18:00–19:30 (EOD-FR1.5), 18:00–18:30 (EOD-FR0.5), and control that without supplemental FR light. The results showed that supplemental FR light significantly stimulated stem elongation thereby resulting in longer plants compared with the control. Moreover, FR light altered leaf morphology toward higher leaf length/width ratio and larger leaf area. The altered plant architecture in FR supplemented plants led to a more homogeneous light distribution inside the canopy. Total plant biomass was increased by 9–16% under supplemental FR light in comparison with control, which led to 7–12% increase in ripe fruit yield. Soluble sugar content of the ripe tomato fruit was slightly decreased by longer exposure of the plants to FR light. Dry matter partitioning to different plant organs were not substantially affected by the FR light treatments. No significant differences were observed among the three FR light treatments in plant morphology as well as yield and biomass production. We conclude that under intra-canopy lighting, overhead supplemental FR light stimulates tomato growth and production. And supplementary of EOD-FR0.5 is more favorable, as it consumes less electricity but induces similar effects on plant morphology and yield.

Red/blue light ratio strongly affects steady-state photosynthesis, but hardly affects photosynthetic induction, in tomato ( <i>Solanum lycopersicum</i> )
摘要： Plants are often subjected to rapidly alternating light intensity and quality. While both short- and long-term changes in red and blue light affect leaf photosynthesis, their impact on dynamic photosynthesis is not well documented. It was tested how dynamic and steady-state photosynthetic traits were affected by red/blue ratios, either during growth or during measurements, in tomato leaves. Four red/blue ratios were used: monochromatic red (R100), monochromatic blue (B100), a red/blue light ratio of 9:1 (R90B10) and a red/blue light ratio of 7:3 (R70B30). R100 grown leaves showed decreased photosynthetic capacity (maximum rates of light-saturated photosynthesis, carboxylation, electron transport and triose phosphate use), leaf thickness and nitrogen concentrations. Acclimation to various red/blue ratios had limited effects on photosynthetic induction in dark-adapted leaves. B100 grown leaves had a ~15% larger initial NPQ transient than the other treatments, which may be beneficial for photoprotection under fluctuating light. B100 grown leaves also showed faster stomatal closure when exposed to low light intensity, which likely resulted from smaller stomata and higher stomatal density. When measured under different red/blue ratios, stomatal opening rate and photosynthetic induction rate were hardly accelerated by increased fractions of blue light in both growth chamber-grown leaves and greenhouse-grown leaves. However, steady-state photosynthesis rate 30 min after photosynthetic induction was strongly reduced in leaves exposed to B100 during the measurement. We conclude that varying red/blue light ratios during growth and measurement strongly affects steady-state photosynthesis, but has limited effects on photosynthetic induction rate.
