Review reveals how light characteristics control growth and sugar metabolism in plants, highlighting molecular mechanisms to optimize crop production.

Key Points

Synthesize current knowledge on the regulatory roles and molecular mechanisms through which light characteristics govern plant growth, development, and sugar metabolism.
Conducted a targeted literature search across scientific databases to evaluate studies addressing light-mediated plant physiological regulation.
Summarized the impacts of light intensity, photoperiod, and light quality on cellular, metabolic, and genetic pathways in plants.
Light intensity, photoperiod, and spectral quality regulate essential developmental processes, including chlorophyll synthesis, stomatal conductance, and cell division.
Light signaling pathways modulate carbohydrate metabolism by directly altering sucrose synthesis, starch granule accumulation, cell wall composition, and vascular bundle formation.
