Description

Plant treatment method and device thereof
The present invention relates to a kind of method of the amount that changes the phytochemical (phytochemicals) in plant cell and/or the plant tissue and be used for its device.Particularly, the present invention relates to a kind ofly be applied to the phytochemical that changes in the plant cell that gathered in and/or the plant tissue wherein for example plant is elementary or the method for the amount of secondary metabolites and be used for the device of this method by the optical wavelength with selected wavelength and intensity, described optical wavelength is selected from the optical wavelength of white light or visible spectrum.
Be known that for example UV-B and UV-C can help to increase for example " essential oil (essential oil) " of whole plants and the amount of secondary metabolites to the light of using UV spectrum.But UV-B and UV-C are problematic for people's use and are serious oncogenic processes.Similarly, UV-B and UV-C light are considered to endanger potentially mammiferous health tissues and are considered to exist use dangerous.
" essential oil " is the reason that causes the aromaticity relevant with many plants (plant that for example comprises fragrance flower and grass, grass for example for cooking (culinary herb)) to a great extent.Essential oil mainly is made up of terpenoid (terpenoids) and can be comprised such compound as 1,8-cineole (cineole), citrene (limonene), linalool (linalool) and β-ocimene (ocimene).Other compounds that can exist in essential oil are the oils of non-terpenoid, can comprise (phenyl-propanoid-derived) compound that phenylpropionic acid derives for example methyl chavicol (chavicol), methyl cinnamate, eugenol (eugenol) and methyleugenol.Therefore, use term " essential oil " to be included in compound shown here from meaning qualitatively, it provides for example aromaticity of fragrance ornamental plants (ornamentals) and grass for cooking of plant.
The level of the known secondary compound to plant phenylpropionic acid (phenyl-propanoid) approach of ultraviolet light (and specifically UV-B) is influential, it is by to the regulatory enzyme of key Phenyl Acetic Acid (Powder aminonialyase (phenylalaline ammonia-lyase) (Kuhn for example, D.N. wait people (1984) Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci., USA, 81,1102-1106) and chalcone synthase (chalcone synthase) (Batschauer, A. wait people (1996) The Plant Journal9,63-69 and Christie, J.M. and Jenkins, G.I. (1996) The Plant Cell 8,1555-1567) effect and exert an influence.The publication report that the UV-B stimulation of many phenolic compounds is arranged, it comprises surperficial flavonols (flavonols) and flavonoids (flavonoids) (Cuadra, P. and Harborne, J.B. (1996) Zeitschrift f ü rNaturforschung 51c, 671-680 and Cuadra, P. wait people (1997) Phytochemistry45,1377-1383), anthocyanin (anthocyanins) (Yatsuhashi, people such as H.
