Effect of Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) on the Quality of Fruits and Vegetables During Postharvest Period: a Review (2020, background): “However, studies have shown that blue LED treatment (450–470 nm) increases the concentration of flavonoids in Chinese foxglove (Rehmannia sp.) from 2–74% compared with the sample that is stored under dark conditions (Manivannan et al. 2015; Nhut et al. 2011).”
Light quality in plant tissue culture: does it matter? (2018, background): “These compounds also increased with the use of red LED lights (Jeong and Sivanesan 2015; Manivannan et al. 2015; Shohael et al. 2006).”
Effects of Light Quality on Growth and Phytonutrient Accumulation of Herbs under Controlled Environments (2017, background): “Monochromatic red or blue light treatments significantly increased the concentrations of total phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and anthocyanins in Chinese foxglove (Rehmannia glutinosa) and perilla plants compared with white light, and blue light was more efficient than red light [53,58].”
