Effects of Different LED Light Quality on Physiological Characteristics and Component Accumulation of Paris polyphylla in Shaanxi Province
Abstract:Objective:To investigate the effects of different light quality of light-emitting diodes on the physiological characteristics and component accumulation of Paris polyphylla in Shaanxi,reveal the optimal light-quality ratio for the growth and secondary metabolites accumulation in P.polyphylla,and provide reasonable guidance for its artificial cultivation.Methods:The red,blue,red:blue 4∶1,red:blue 2∶1,and white light quality were used to treat P.polyphylla cultured in the substrate,and investigate the biomass,chlorophyll content,superoxide dismutase activity,total polysaccharide and total saponin contents of P.polyphylla,reveal the physiological mechanism of P.polyphylla response to different LED light quality preliminary.Results:The contents of chlorophyll a,b and proteins in the leaves of P.polyphylla treated by red:blue 2∶1(2R1B)were promoted significantly compared with the white light.The SOD activity was decreased by 55.40% compared with the control treated by 2R1B for 30 d,the total polysaccharide content in the rhizome was the highest treated by 2R1B for 20 d,up to 2.165 fold compared with the control.However,the total saponin content in the rhizome reached its maximum treated by blue light for 30 d,which was up to 1.595 fold compared with the control.Conclusion:The red:blue 2∶1 light quality promotes the chlorophyll content,protein and total polysaccharides accumulation in P.polyphylla significantly.The accumulation of total saponins is better with blue light treatment.In actual production,the optimal light quality should be reasonably selected according to the different target components.
