What is Blue light induces biosynthesis of flavonoids in Epimedium sagittatum (Sieb.et Zucc.) Maxim. leaves, a study on a light-demanding medicinal shade herb about?
Light is one of the most important environmental factors in plant life activities, and it plays an important role in regulating the synthesis of plant secondary metabolites. As a light-demanding shade plant, Epimedium sagittatum has a typical secondary metabolic process under different light irradiations. However, few studies have investigated the changes in flavonoid contents in E. sagittatum under different light irradiations. In this study, the effects of different light irradiations, namely red light, yellow light, and blue light, on plant physiological characteristics and saikosaponin secondary metabolism are investigated in one-year-old E. sagittatum leaves collected after 10, 20, and 30 days of treatment. The average leaf area significantly increased by 55.11 %, 45.15 %, and 42.09 %, respectively (p 0.05). Red light, yellow light, and blue light significantly increased the chlorophyll content (SPAD value) of the E. sagittatum leaves (p < 0.05). Although red light treatment could increase the leaf area, it had no positive effect on the accumulation of flavonoids. Yellow light treatment significantly increased the epimedin C and icariin contents by 42.54 % and 15.02 %, respe
