e0“This study aimed to identify the regulatory mechanisms of white, blue, red lights on carotenoid and tocochromanol biosynthesis in mung bean sprouts”
e5“Light signals also promoted α- and γ-tocopherol accumulation (up to 1.8 folds) as compared with dark control”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect White, blue and red lights increased lutein in mung bean sprouts relative to the dark control, by 3.2–8.1 folds.
- Intervention effect White, blue and red lights increased violaxanthin in mung bean sprouts relative to the dark control, by 2.1–6.1 folds.
- Intervention effect White, blue and red lights increased β-carotene in mung bean sprouts relative to the dark control, by 20–36 folds, with the best yield under white light.
- Intervention effect Light quality conditions increased the expression of CRTISO, LUT5 and DXS in mung bean sprouts, by 1.24–6.34 folds.
- Mechanism Higher expression of CRTISO, LUT5 and DXS under light quality may explain an overaccumulation of carotenoids in mung bean sprouts.
- Association The MPBQ-MT, TC and TMT genes were expressed up to 4.19 folds compared with control in mung bean sprouts.
- Mechanism The MPBQ-MT, TC and TMT genes were decisive for tocochromanol biosynthesis in mung bean sprouts.
