Comparative proteomics analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana response to light-emitting diode of narrow wavelength 450 nm, 595 nm, and 650 nm.

Incident light is a central modulator of plant growth and development. However, there are still open questions surrounding wavelength-specific plant proteomic responses. Here we applied tandem mass tag based quantitative proteomics technology to acquire an in-depth view of proteome changes in Arabidopsis thaliana response to narrow wavelength blue (B; 450 nm), amber (A; 595 nm), and red (R; 650 nm) light treatments.

The effect of light quality on plant physiology, photosynthetic, and stress response in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves.

The impacts of wavelengths in 500-600 nm on plant response and their underlying mechanisms remain elusive and required further investigation. Here, we investigated the effect of light quality on leaf area growth, biomass, pigments content, and net photosynthetic rate (Pn) across three Arabidopsis thaliana accessions, along with changes in transcription, photosynthates content, and antioxidative enzyme activity. Eleven-leaves plants were treated with BL; 450 nm, AL; 595 nm, RL; 650 nm, and FL; 400-700 nm as control.
