Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the field of agricultural biotechnology, and particularly relates to a lettuce rapid carbon assimilation light formula and regulation method based on 450 / 460 nm laser and 660 nm LED pulse time sequence coupling. BACKGROUND
[0002] The lettuce rapid carbon assimilation light formula and regulation method based on 450 / 460 nm laser and 660 nm LED pulse time sequence coupling is a high-efficiency plant light environment regulation technology which combines precise spectrum modulation and dynamic energy supply. The method is based on the high directionality and high photon flux characteristics of 450 nm (blue light) and 460 nm (near blue light) lasers, and combines the high photosynthetic quantum efficiency advantage of 660 nm (red light) LED. Through the design of specific duty cycle, frequency and phase difference of pulse time sequence, for example, the high-frequency short pulse is used to drive the blue light laser to excite the electron transfer activity of the chloroplast PSII reaction center, and the red light LED is triggered synchronously or with a microsecond lag to supplement the energy demand of PSI cycle and Calvin cycle, so that the dynamic coupling mode of "blue light excitation activity-red light collaborative carbon fixation" is formed. In terms of regulation, the lettuce photosynthetic rate (such as LI-6800 photosynthetic instrument data), chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (Fv / Fm, PhiPSII) and carbohydrate accumulation rate are monitored in real time, and the pulse intensity (such as the peak power of blue light laser 50-200 mW, the red light LED irradiance 100-300 μmol·m -2 ·s -1 ), time sequence phase (such as blue light leading red light by 10-50 μs triggering) and time length ratio (such as strengthening blue light pulse ratio to 60% for 2 hours before the light period, and balancing the red and blue ratio to 1:1.2 for 4 hours after the light period) are dynamically optimized by algorithm, so that the Rubisco enzyme activity and CO2 fixation efficiency are maximized while avoiding photoinhibition, the rapid accumulation of lettuce biomass (especially leaf soluble sugar and starch) is realized, the growth cycle can be shortened by 15%-25% compared with traditional continuous light, and the precise light environment solution is provided for efficient seedling raising and low-carbon production of facility agriculture.
[0003] Currently, in the field of plant factory and facility agriculture, in order to improve the photosynthetic carbon assimilation efficiency and growth rate of leafy crops (such as lettuce), some studies have attempted to combine different waveband light sources, among which the pulse timing coupling scheme based on 450 / 460 nm laser and 660 nm LED has gradually attracted attention. 450 / 460 nm laser has the characteristics of strong directivity and high photon density, which can effectively stimulate the electron transfer of the reaction center of photosystem II (PSII) of chloroplast; while 660 nm LED is often used to promote the carbon fixation process in the photosystem I (PSI) cycle and the Calvin cycle due to its high matching degree with the absorption peak of chlorophyll a and high photosynthetic quantum efficiency. By coupling the two according to a certain pulse timing, the dynamic coordination of photosynthetic electron flow and carbon assimilation process can be theoretically achieved, thereby improving the carbon assimilation rate and biomass accumulation of lettuce. However, the existing such technologies still have the following significant defects in application:
[0004] Insufficient matching accuracy of pulse timing and physiological response: Most schemes use fixed pulse frequency, duty cycle and timing phase difference, without fully considering the dynamic changes of photosynthetic mechanism state and metabolic demand of lettuce at different growth stages (such as seedling stage, vigorous growth period) or different environmental factors (temperature, CO2 concentration), resulting in that the light energy cannot be efficiently utilized at some time periods, and even causing photoinhibition or photooxidative damage;
[0005] Contradiction between energy distribution and heat management of spectral coupling: Although the high photon flux of 450 / 460 nm laser can quickly activate PSII, continuous or high-frequency pulse can easily cause local light energy surplus, and when 660 nm LED is used to supplement red light energy, if the pulse timing is not matched with blue light, it can easily lead to uneven temperature distribution on the leaf surface, affecting stomatal conductance and CO2 diffusion efficiency, and thus limiting the continuous improvement of carbon assimilation;
[0006] Real-time deficiency of regulation depending on offline parameters: Most existing methods are based on pre-set empirical light recipes (such as fixed red-to-blue ratio, pulse length) for regulation, lack of online monitoring and feedback on real-time photosynthetic parameters of lettuce (such as net photosynthetic rate, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, intercellular CO2 concentration), and are difficult to dynamically adjust pulse parameters according to the actual carbon assimilation state of the plant, resulting in insufficient "precision" and "adaptability" of the light environment;
[0007] High complexity of device integration and control: The pulse driving of laser and LED needs to match different power supplies and control systems respectively, and the synchronization accuracy of the controller is extremely high (usually in microseconds) for timing coupling, and the existing hardware architecture is prone to timing drift or signal interference, which increases the system cost and maintenance difficulty and limits the large-scale promotion;
[0008] The carbon assimilation efficiency is limited in the increase range and poor in stability: although part of the experiments show that the scheme can short-term increase the photosynthetic rate of lettuce, under the continuous production conditions, due to the above matching accuracy, real-time regulation and heat management and other problems, the gain of carbon assimilation efficiency is easy to decay with the extension of culture time, and the response consistency of different batches of lettuce is poor, which is difficult to meet the needs of stable and high yield of industrialized production.
[0009] Therefore, we propose a lettuce rapid carbon assimilation light formula and regulation method based on 450 / 460nm laser and 660nm LED pulse timing coupling. SUMMARY

[0043] 1. This method for rapid carbon assimilation photoformulation and control in lettuce, based on the time-series coupling of 450 / 460nm laser and 660nm LED pulses, can precisely match the pulse timing with the instantaneous state of the lettuce photosynthetic apparatus through multi-parameter real-time monitoring and stage identification models. This avoids energy waste or light inhibition caused by fixed formulations at different times. Experiments show that this method can increase photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) utilization by 18%–28%. By introducing leaf surface temperature feedback and cooling interval strategies, Tleaf can be stabilized in the optimal range of 22–26℃, avoiding a decrease in stomatal conductance and inhibition of Rubisco activity due to local overheating, thereby ensuring CO2 supply and carbon fixation efficiency.
[0044] 2. This rapid carbon assimilation photoformulation and control method for lettuce based on the timing coupling of 450 / 460nm laser and 660nm LED pulses, based on the feedback mechanism of dPn / dt and dCi / dt, can automatically eliminate the photoinhibition trend and capture the carbon assimilation acceleration window, enabling lettuce to maintain a high net photosynthetic rate throughout the entire growth period. It solves the efficiency decay problem of traditional fixed formulations with cultivation time. The microsecond-level synchronous drive combined with drift detection and calibration ensures that the timing deviation of blue and red light pulses is ≤±1μs, significantly reducing energy competition and light system imbalance caused by timing misalignment. The abnormal protection mechanism ensures safe operation even in sensor failure or extreme environments.

This rapid carbon assimilation light formulation and control method for lettuce based on the time-series coupling of 450 / 460nm laser and 660nm LED pulses, under conditions of 25℃ and 800ppm CO2, compared with conventional continuous light, shows: a 20%–35% increase in daily fresh weight growth rate (average of +33% in the examples); a 25%–30% increase in soluble sugar content and a 20%–28% increase in starch content; and a 15%–25% reduction in the growth cycle (from 28 days to 21 days). The method framework can be transferred to other leafy vegetables (such as spinach and arugula) or different light source combinations, and the modular design of software and hardware facilitates upgrades and mass deployment, making it suitable for high-density planting scenarios such as plant factories and vertical farms.

[0048] An Example of a Photopolymer Formulation and Control Method for Rapid Carbon Assimilation in Lettuce Based on the Timing Coupling of 450 / 460nm Laser and 660nm LED Pulses
[0049] A rapid carbon assimilation photopolymerization formulation and control method for lettuce based on the time-series coupling of 450 / 460nm laser and 660nm LED pulses includes the following steps:

[0063] Specifically, in step S5, T_safe is set based on the lettuce variety and growth period, generally between 26 and 28°C. When Tleaf ≥ T_safe, at least one of the following measures is implemented:
[0064] Reduce P_peak(450nm) and P_peak(460nm) simultaneously by 10% to 30%;
[0065] A 1-5 ms zero-intensity interval is inserted after each blue light pulse as a cooling window;
[0066] Reduce D_blue by 5% to 15% while keeping red light unchanged to transfer heat energy.
[0067] Specifically, the decision logic for closed-loop correction in step S6 is as follows:
[0068] If dPn / dt < 0 and dCi / dt > 0, it is determined to be a light suppression trend, and f and D_blue are immediately reduced while I_red is increased;
[0069] If dPn / dt>0 and dCi / dt<0, it is determined to be the carbon assimilation acceleration period, and D_blue and P_peak can be appropriately increased;
[0070] If dPn / dt≈0 and dCi / dt≈0, it is determined to be in steady state, and the current parameters are maintained.
[0071] Each correction should not exceed ±20% of the original parameter, and the parameter should be reassessed every hour.
[0072] Specifically, it also includes an anomaly protection mechanism: when sensor data is missing for more than 3 consecutive sampling periods or Pn is lower than a threshold (e.g., 1 μmol·m⁻¹), -2 ·s -1 When the alarm is triggered, the system switches to the preset safety light formula and issues an alarm.
[0073] A lettuce rapid carbon assimilation light regulation system for implementing the above method includes:
[0074] Multi-parameter sensor array: includes a photosynthetic gas exchange measurement unit (LI-6800 or equivalent device), a chlorophyll fluorescence measurement unit, an infrared temperature sensor array, and an ambient CO2 / temperature and humidity sensor;

Experiments show that this method can increase the utilization rate of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) by 18%–28%. By introducing leaf surface temperature feedback and cooling interval strategies, Tleaf can be stabilized in the optimal range of 22–26℃, avoiding the decrease in stomatal conductance and Rubisco activity inhibition caused by local overheating, thereby ensuring CO2 supply and carbon fixation efficiency. Based on the feedback mechanism of dPn / dt and dCi / dt, the light inhibition trend can be automatically eliminated and the carbon assimilation acceleration window can be captured, enabling lettuce to maintain a high net photosynthetic rate throughout the entire growth period. This solves the efficiency decay problem of traditional fixed formulations with cultivation time. Microsecond-level synchronous drive combined with drift detection and calibration ensures that the timing deviation of blue and red light pulses is ≤ ± The 1μs time significantly reduces energy competition and light system imbalance caused by timing misalignment; the abnormal protection mechanism ensures safe operation even in sensor failure or extreme environments. Under conditions of 25℃ and 800ppm CO2, compared with conventional continuous illumination: the daily average fresh weight growth rate is increased by 20% to 35% (average of the examples: +33%); the soluble sugar content is increased by 25% to 30%, and the starch content is increased by 20% to 28%; the growth cycle is shortened by 15% to 25% (from 28 days to 21 days). The method framework can be transferred to other leafy vegetables (such as spinach and arugula) or different light source combinations, and the modular design of software and hardware facilitates upgrades and batch deployment, making it suitable for high-density planting scenarios such as plant factories and vertical farms.
