Transcriptional and translational responses of rapeseed leaves to red and blue lights at the rosette stage.
J Zhejiang Univ Sci B

Under different red (R):blue (B) photon flux ratios, the growth performance of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is significantly different. Rapeseed under high R ratios shows shade response, while under high B ratios it shows sun-type morphology.

- The study examined how different light colors (white, blue, green, red) affect gene expression and growth in "Manicure Finger" grape plantlets through RNA sequencing, identifying 670 DEGs under blue, 1,601 under green, and 746 under red light compared to white.
- Exposure to red and green light mainly triggered shade-avoidance responses, leading to taller stems, less leaf growth, and lower chlorophyll levels, while also impacting genes related to metabolic pathways for starch and sugars.
- Blue light influenced the up-regulation of genes related to chlorophyll synthesis and resistance, contributing to increased leaf growth and chloroplast development, in contrast to the effects of red and green light.
