🔬University of Tsukuba: Lettuce freely modifies metabolism by light intensity and light quality

~ Successful customization of useful metabolite productivity by narrow wavelength LED light source ~

The research group of University of Tsukuba, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry, Hokkaido University, RIKEN and Richard Michelmore et al. Of UC Davis Genome Center (USA), etc. have found that metabolic reactions occurring when sunny lettuce is grown under various artificial light irradiation conditions The difference was unveiled for the first time in the world by integrated omics analysis.
