研究目的
Investigating the effects of supplemental intracanopy far-red (FR) radiation in addition to red (R) light with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on improving fruit quality attributes of greenhouse tomatoes compared to R LEDs alone and high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps.
研究成果
Supplemental intracanopy R + FR LEDs significantly improved the physicochemical properties, mineral concentrations, and sensory attributes of greenhouse tomatoes compared to R LEDs alone and HPS lamps. This approach is practical and applicable for improving the quality and taste of off-season greenhouse tomatoes.
研究不足
The study was conducted in a controlled greenhouse environment, which may not fully replicate commercial production conditions. The specific effects of FR light on fruit quality attributes need further investigation to understand the underlying mechanisms.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study compared the effects of three light treatments (overhead HPS lamps, intracanopy R LEDs, and intracanopy R + FR LEDs) on greenhouse tomato production. The experimental design included measuring photosynthetic photon flux (PPF), light spectrum, and leaf surface temperature across different canopy levels.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
Tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum) were grown in a greenhouse under controlled conditions. Fruit samples were collected over 3 weeks between 20 and 22 weeks after transplanting.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Equipment included light-emitting diodes (LEDs), high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps, a spherical quantum sensor, a spectroradiometer, a hand-held infrared radiometer, and an energy monitor. Materials included tomato seeds, nutrient solutions, and soilless slabs.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
Plants were grown under controlled environmental conditions with supplemental lighting provided by HPS lamps or intracanopy LEDs. Light spectrum and intensity were measured, and plant growth, fruit yield, and quality attributes were assessed.
5:Data Analysis Methods
Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s honestly significant difference (HSD) test. Sensory evaluation data were collected and analyzed using RedJade? software.
