Effect of Light on Nitrate Accumulation in Vegetables and the Mechanism Thereof

doi:10.7668/hbnxb.2011.S2.029

Abstract

Abstract: Nitrate is a type of substance easily accumulated in vegetables,especially in leaf vegetables,and poses serious health hazard if ingested excessively.Light is one of the most important environmental factors that influence nitrate content in plants.This review summarized the effects of light on nitrate accumulation in vegetables from the aspect of light intensity,light quality and light duration respectively,expatiated the daily variation in nitrate content in vegetables under traditional lighting mode,and summarized the effect mechanism from the aspect of nitrate absorption and assimilation.

Key words: Light, Nitrate, Nitrate metabolism, Nitrate reductase

CLC Number:

Q945.1
