In the light of new greenhouse technologies: 2. Direct effects of artificial lighting on arthropods and integrated pest management in greenhouse crops (2011, background): “The novel greenhouse lighting technologies also offer the possibility of improved management of pests and diseases (Schuerger & Brown, 1997; Rahman et al., 2003; Raviv & Antignus, 2004; Dı́az & Fereres, 2007; Wang et al., 2010).”
The effects of light-emitting diode lighting on greenhouse plant growth and quality (2013, background): “Cucumber plants, grown under monochromatic red LED light were more resistant to powdery mildew as compared to other monochromatic light colors and this effect correlated with enhanced salicylic aciddependent signaling pathway (Wang et al. 2010).”
The Effect of Blue-light-emitting Diodes on Antioxidant Properties and Resistance to Botrytis cinerea in Tomato (2013, background): “[12] found that disease resistance to Sphaerotheca fuliginea in cucumber plants was induced by red light.”
