LED light improves shoot multiplication, steviol glycosides and phenolic compounds biosynthesis in Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni in vitro culture.

ABSTRACT: Light-emitting diode (LED) lamps are efficient elicitors of secondary metabolites. To investigate the influence of LED light on steviol glycosides (SGs) and phenolic compounds biosynthesis, stevia shoots were cultured under the following LED lights: white-WL, blue-B, red-R, 70% red and 30% blue-RB, 50% UV, 35% red and 15% blue-RBUV, 50% green, 35% red and 15% blue-RBG, 50% yellow, 35% red and 15% blue-RBY, 50% far-red, 35% red and 15% blue-RBFR and white fluorescent light (WFl, control). RBG light stimulated shoots' biomass production. RBFR had a beneficial impact on stevioside biosynthesis (1.62 mg/g dry weight, DW), while RBUV favoured the production of rebaudioside A (3.15 mg/g DW). Neochlorogenic, chlorogenic, caffeic, 4-feruloylquinic, isochlorogenic A, rosmarinic acids and the flavon
