WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 Light source Provided herein are devices and systems relating to administration of UV, wherein light is administered using a light source. The light source may administer light of various wavelengths. For example, the light source is configured to emit one or more wavelengths of light in a range of about 300 nm and about 800 nm. In some instances, the light source emits one or more wavelengths in a range of about 280 nm to about 320 nm. In some instances, the UV is UV-B. Throughout this specification the term “ultraviolet (UV) irradiation” should be taken as meaning electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than visible light, but longer than X-rays, and is in between the range of 10 nm to 400 nm (corresponding to 3 eV to 124 eV). The ultraviolet (UV) irradiation spectrum is considered to be invisible to humans, and therefore differentiated from visible light in the spectrum of about 400 nm to 700 nm. The ultraviolet spectrum can be further broken down into UV-A (400-320nm), UV-B (320-280 nm) and UV-C (280-100 nm). In some embodiments, use of a wavelength or wavelengths in a specific and narrow focused range within UV radiation between about 275-310 nm leads to beneficial results. In some embodiments, use of a wavelength or wavelengths in a specific and narrow focused range within UV-B radiation between 280-310 nm leads to beneficial results. In some embodiments, part of the UV-B spectrum above about 310 nm does not lead to the beneficial results seen. As will be discussed further, the UV-B spectrum covers 280 nm to about 315 nm (however, defined separations between UV wavebands are approximate, and are subject to at least two common variations in the literature, i.e. including an upper limit for UV-B of 320 nm (IARC monographs on the evaluation of carcinogenic risks to humans. Volume 55 – Solar and ultraviolet radiation; Chapter 1; Exposure data (1992)). It is possible that broader treatment within the UV-B spectrum or uncontrolled UV treatment may lead to deleterious results. Without wishing to be bound by theory, the commercial end result of an improved child crop yield and / or quality of the crop at harvest is thought be at least partially attributed to an exposure of a parent crop seed to UV light. In some embodiments, using UV radiation outside of the UV-B range (for example the UV-A or UV-C wavelengths) does not lead to beneficial results. In some embodiments, beneficial effects dramatically diminish or disappear entirely when moving out of the UV-B spectrum, for instance into the UV-A spectrum (400 to 315 nm). Methods as described herein, in some embodiments, comprise exposure to UV wavelength of about 280 to about 305 nm. In some embodiments, the beneficial effects are most pronounced within a narrower band of the UV-B spectrum, particularly between 280-305 nm. WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 In some embodiments, beneficial results are still seen beyond 305 nm, but the beneficial results drop sharply after moving beyond a wavelength of about 310 nm. For example, a UV light treatment peaking at 319 nm is still within the UV-B waveband of the spectrum, yet do not appear to produce desired effects. The present disclosure, in some embodiments, uses wavelengths in the short-wave range of the UV-B spectrum, a proportion of which exist outside of the natural spectrum of sunlight that reach the earth’s surface. In some embodiments, UV treatment in the UV-A spectrum (at 354 nm) or treatment in the UV-C spectrum (at 270 nm) is not effective to improve crop yield. In some embodiments, the method includes exposure to a peak UV wavelength of about 280 to about 290 nm. In some embodiments, treatment with UV light peaking between 280-290 nm showed promising results. In some embodiments, the method includes only a specific wavelength (or at least a wavelength peak) between 280-310 nm. In some embodiments, methods as described herein comprise a small amount of UV light that extends partially outside of the 280-310 nm range. In some embodiments, methods comprise insignificant background irradiation. This effect would be minor and would be appreciated by someone skilled in the art to have no real influence on the disclosure’s benefits. Methods as described herein comprise administration of UV in a range of about 275 nm to about 320 nm. In some embodiments, UV is administered at 280 nm (±5 nm), 286 nm (±5 nm), 294 nm (±5 nm), or about 317 nm. The UV can be about 280 nm, about 281 nm, about 282 nm, about 283 nm, about 284 nm, about 285 nm, about 286 nm, about 287 nm, about 288 nm, about 289 nm, about 290 nm, about 291 nm, about 292 nm, about 293 nm, about 294 nm, about 295 nm, about 296 nm, about 297 nm, about 298 nm, about 299 nm, about 300 nm, about 301 nm, about 302 nm, about 303 nm, about 304 nm, about 305 nm, about 306 nm, about 307 nm, about 308 nm, about 309 nm, about 310 nm, about 311 nm, about 312 nm, about 313 nm, about 314 nm, about 315 nm, about 316 nm, about 317 nm, about 318 nm, about 319 nm, or about 320 nm. In some embodiments, UV is peaking at 280 nm (±5 nm), 286 nm (±5 nm), 294 nm (±5 nm), or about 317 nm. The UV can be about 280 nm, about 281 nm, about 282 nm, about 283 nm, about 284 nm, about 285 nm, about 286 nm, about 287 nm, about 288 nm, about 289 nm, about 290 nm, about 291 nm, about 292 nm, about 293 nm, about 294 nm, about 295 nm, about 296 nm, about 297 nm, about 298 nm, about 299 nm, about 300 nm, about 301 nm, about 302 nm, about 303 nm, about 304 nm, about 305 nm, about 306 nm, about 307 nm, about 308 nm, about 309 nm, about 310 nm, about 311 nm, about 312 nm, about 313 nm, about 314 nm, about 315 nm, about 316 nm, about 317 nm, about 318 nm, about 319 nm, or about 320 nm. In some embodiments, the UV is administered or peaking in a range of about 280 nm to about 290 nm, about 280 nm to about 300 nm, about 280 nm to about 310 nm, about 280 nm to about 320 nm, WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 about 290 nm to about 300 nm, about 290 nm to about 310 nm, about 290 nm to about 320 nm, about 300 nm to about 310 nm, about 300 nm to about 320 nm, or about 310 nm to about 320 nm. In some embodiments, the UV is administered or peaking in a range of 280 nm (±5 nm) to 284 nm (±5 nm), 279 nm (±5 nm) to about 288 nm, about 289 nm to about 300 nm, or 286 nm (±5 nm) to about 305 nm. In some embodiments, UV is peaking at 282 nm. In some embodiments, UV is peaking at 292 nm. In some embodiments, the wavelength within the 280–310 nm range during the method treatment for a given plant species is altered. In some embodiments, a combination of different wavelengths within the UV spectrum are concurrently used. In some embodiments, methods as described herein do not comprise the use of other UV wavelengths such as UV-A or UV-C in combination with the specific UV-B treatment. In some embodiments, other wavelengths outside of the 280-310 nm UV-B treatment do not comprise part of the methods as described herein. In some embodiments, there is a significant advantage over treatment methods which use multiple wavelengths in more than one spectrum. The preferred dosage regime(s) of UV light may vary and consider various parameters including, but not limited to, the type of crop, the intensity of the UV light (W m-2s-1), the length of treatment (days) and the rest period (on / off) between each UV application during treatment. In some instances, the device is configured to regulate or to hold its light source at a fixed or otherwise determined distance of a light source to a plant seed. In some instances, the distance from the plant seed and the light source is in a range of about 5 to about 200, about 10 to about 160, about 20 to about 140, about 30 to about 120, or about 40 to about 60 mm. In some instances, the distance from the plant seed and the light source is about 50 mm. In some instances, the distance from the plant seed and the light source is about 70 mm. In some instances, the at least one light source is used to emit the one or more wavelengths of light. The light source may be selected from the group consisting of a light emitting diode (LED), a laser, an incandescent light bulb, and a gas discharge bulb.

Alternately, LED lights are configured to administer light at a standard white light spectrum which is supplemented by light in the UV-B range, for example at about 280 nm, a range within 10 nm, 9 nm, 8 nm, 7 nm, 6 nm, 5 nm, 4 nm, 3 nm, 2 nm, or 1 nm WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 of 280 nm, or exactly 280 nm, at about 286 nm, a range within 10 nm, 9 nm, 8 nm, 7 nm, 6 nm, 5 nm, 4 nm, 3 nm, 2 nm, or 1 nm of 286 nm, or exactly 286 nm. LEDs as used herein may be appropriately configured for UV administration. In some instances, LED panels are configured at a height of about 80 mm. A LED panel may be arranged above a plurality of seeds at about 5 mm, 10 mm, 20 mm, 40 mm, 60 mm, 80 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm, 150 mm, or 200 mm height. The LED panel may be arranged at a range of about 20 mm -200 mm, 40 mm -150 mm, 60 mm -120 mm, or 80 mm -100 mm. Often the distance between UV panels is about 10 mm. In some cases, the distance between UV panels is about 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, or 20 mm. Alternately, the distance between UV panels is in a range of about 1 mm -20 mm, 2 mm -15 mm, 3 mm -10 mm, or 4 mm -9 mm. Often the minimum distance between UV and the conveyor system is about 400 mm.

In some instances, the UV is UV-B. The LEDs may be arranged in an array. In some instances, the array comprises a plurality of light sources. In some instances, the plurality of light sources are arranged in rows, wherein each row comprises individual light sources. Each row of the plurality of light sources, in some instances, can emit different wavelengths of light. For example, a first row administers UV-B, a second row administers UV-A, and a third row administers visible light. In some instances, each row of the plurality of light sources administers UV-B. In some instances, each row of the plurality of light sources administers UV-B having varying dosage, intensity, irradiance, wavelength, or combinations thereof.

At least one of plant performance and hardiness may be increased by at least 30%. At least one of plant performance and hardiness may be increased by at least 50%. WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 In some instances, plant performance is measured by at least one of a reduction in fertilizer, herbicide, insecticide, and pesticide use without affecting crop yield. Reduction to fertilizer, herbicide, insecticide, or pesticide use may be determined by comparison to the industry use for a crop over ten years, to the state-wide average, or the national average. The reduction of fertilizer use may be at least 5%. In some cases, the reduction of fertilizer is in the range of about 5%-100%, 10%-90%, 20%-80%, 30%-70%, 40%-60%, 50%-95%, 65%-85%, or 75%-95%. In some instances, the reduction of herbicide use is at least 5%. In some cases, the reduction of herbicide is in the range of about 5%-100%, 10%-90%, 20%-80%, 30%-70%, 40%- 60%, 50%-95%, 65%-85%, or 75%-95%. In some instances, the reduction of insecticide use is at least 5%.

Plant performance may be measured in resultant crops requiring less fertilizer. In some instances, plant performance is measured when the crops are sowed or at one or multiple times before the crops are sowed. Plant performance includes but is not limited to, flavonoid level, anthocyanin level, leaf size, leaf surface area, dry weight, nitrogen content, shoot dry weight, shoot fresh weight, root dry weight, vegetable development, yield of fruiting parts, weight of fruiting parts, hardiness, or seed germination rate. In some cases, plant performance is measured as improved quality comprising at least one of a longer shelf-life, a resistance to bruising or post-harvesting handling, an increased nutrient value, and an improved taste, shape, color, size, and texture. Often plants grown from UV irradiated seeds require less fertilizer without any concomitant decrease in plant performance compared to plants grown from non-UV irradiated seeds. In an alternate embodiment, plants grown from UV irradiated seeds require less of at least one of less herbicide, fungicide, and insecticide. In some instances, the resultant plant is grown with a reduction in at least one of herbicide, insecticide, and pesticide, enabling organic crops for animal or human consumption. In some instances, the UV is UV-B. Plant performance is measured in a number of ways in various embodiments described herein. For example, performance is measured as yield, nutritional value, flavonoid production, anthocyanin production, resistance to an insect challenge, resistance to a bacterial or fungal challenge, resistance to an abiotic stress such as drought, heat, cold, or nutrient stress. Alternately, or in combination, plant performance is identified as reduction in herbicide, pesticide, insecticide, or fertilizer application. Increased plant performance in some instances can result in harvesting a crop sooner. Alternate definitions of plant performance are consistent WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 with the disclosure herein. Notably, upon treatment of seeds with UV-B supplementation as disclosed herein, the resultant plants often demonstrate both and increased hardiness and an increased growth in the absence of environmental stress. That is, plants grown from treated seeds, such as seeds treated with 280 nm UV-B supplementation, exhibit an increased resistance to biotic stress, such as bacterial, insect or fungal pathogen stress, an increased resistance to abiotic stress such as heat, cold, drought, salinity, light, nutrients or wind, and, surprisingly, an increased growth rate in the absence of such stresses relative to plants grown from untreated seeds. As a consequence, plants grown from treated seeds demonstrate an increased in yield relative to plants grown from untreated seeds both in the presence and in the absence of stress. Alternately or in combination, plants grown from treated seeds attain comparable or improved yield relative to plants grown from untreated seeds despite decreased fertilizer administration, decreased watering, decreased herbicide administration, or decreased soil quality, for example, relative to that of plants grown from untreated seeds. Accordingly, UV-B supplementation administered using device sand systems described herein enables methods of growing crops such that pesticide use, herbicide use, fertilizer administration, or water administration is reduced relative to plants grown from untreated seeds without any concomitant decrease in yield. In some cases, UV-B supplementation enables a substantial decrease in overall environmental impact without decrease in crop yield. Untreated seeds may be used to determine improvements in at least one of hardiness and plant performance as compared to seeds administered UV using devices and systems described herein. In some instances, untreated seeds are seeds that are not administered UV according to methods described herein. In some instances, untreated seeds are treated similarly but are not administered UV. In some instances, untreated seeds comprise seeds that vary by at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or more than 5 treatment conditions described herein. Improvements in at least one of hardiness and plant performance may be determined from resultant seedlings or crops of seeds administered UV using methods described herein. For example, seedlings from UV irradiated seeds are compared to seedlings from seeds that are not irradiated using UV by methods described herein. In some instances, improvements in the resultant crops are compared to a crop grown under similar conditions but from seeds that are not administered UV using methods described herein. In some instances, the UV is UV-B. Similar conditions may be similar environment or similar growing conditions. Environmental factors include, but are not limited to, sun exposure, temperature, soil composition, soil moisture, wind, humidity, and soil pH. Growing conditions include but are not limited to, amount of watering, amount of pesticide, amount of herbicide, amount of insecticide, duration of WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 priming, duration of germination, and timing of sowing. In some instances, the resultant crops are compared to crops grown at a same time. For example, the crops grown at the same time are grown on an adjacent or nearby field. In some instances, the resultant crops are compared to crops from a previous growing season. In some instances, a yield of the resultant crops is compared to a comparable crop. Yield may comprise improvements in at least one of plant performance and hardiness. In some instances, yield from a comparable crop is referred to standard yield. In some instances, the comparable crop is a crop that is grown at a same time or subject to similar growing conditions. Computing Systems In some cases, the devices or systems described herein may implement computing systems. For example, these computing systems may be implemented to serve as controllers for the devices or systems disclosed herein (e.g., controlling conveyors, controlling lights, controlling feeders, etc.). The computer systems disclosed herein may implement one or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform the methods described herein. Referring to FIG.3, a block diagram is shown depicting an example machine that includes a computer system 300 (e.g., a processing or computing system) within which a set of instructions can execute for causing a device to perform or execute any one or more of the aspects or methodologies for static code scheduling of the present disclosure. The components in FIG.3 are examples and do not limit the scope of use or functionality of any hardware, software, embedded logic component, or a combination of two or more such components with particular implementations.

Definitions Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. All patents and publications referred to herein are incorporated by reference. As used in the specification and claims, the singular form “a”, “an” and “the” includes plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The term “including” is used to mean “including but not limited to.” “Including” and “including but not limited to” are used interchangeably. The term comprising as used herein is intended to refer to an open-ended set, such that a claim or list ‘comprising’ an element is not precluded from also reciting additional elements not listed. The term “seed for sowing” as used herein refers to any embryonic plant prior to, and / or intended to be used for, planting to grow any form of plant life or crop for subsequent use (typically, but not solely, for human and animal consumption). Substantially any type of seed may be used according to the present disclosure, of which there are currently about 35,000 types WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 currently known worldwide, as noted in U.S. Pat. No.8,001,722. Results indicated that UV-B treatment of seeds improved plant performance that is extendable to any plant species. Some non-limiting examples of seeds for are seeds of agricultural or ornamental plants, such as lettuce, beans, broccoli, cabbage, carrot, cauliflower, cucumber, melon, onion, peas, peppers, pumpkin, spinach, squash, sweetcorn, tomato, watermelon, alfalfa, canola, corn, cotton, sorghum, soybeans, sugarbeets, wheat, mint, sunflowers, maize, rice, or other agriculturally or ornamentally relevant plant species. The term “seed” refers to an embryonic plant enclosed in a protective outer covering. The formation of the seed is part of the process of reproduction in seed plants, the spermatophytes, including gymnosperm and angiosperm plants. Seeds are the product of the ripened ovule, after fertilization by pollen and some growth within the mother plant. The embryo is developed from the zygote and the seed coat from the integuments of the ovule. The term “seed germination” refers to a process by which a seed embryo develops into a seedling. It involves the activation of the metabolic pathways that lead to growth, and the emergence of the radicle or seed root and plumule or shoot. In general, seed germination is initiated through stratification, which varies among plant species according to their original ecological setting. Often though not uniformly, seed germination is triggered through a three- phase process involving water imbibition, lag phase, and radicle emergence. Seed germination may be affected by environmental conditions including, but not limited to, water, oxygen, temperature, and light. The term “plant performance” as used herein refers to improving at least one of resilience and growth. Resilience, as used herein refers to biotic or abiotic environmental stress, which can impact the seed, the seedling, the resulting plant, the resultant crop before or after harvesting. “Growth” generally refers to performance in the absence of an abiotic or biotic stress, such as performance under healthy or ‘best case scenario’ growth conditions. One observes that, depending upon growth conditions, both increase resilience and improvements in growth can result in increases in yield, depending upon growth conditions. One observes that improving both growth and resilience has the effect of improving yield of harvestable crop material relative plants resulting from untreated seeds independent of growth conditions. Plant performance also refers in some cases to improving quality of harvestable crop material, such that plant value is increased per unit yield even if yield, more coarsely defined, is unaffected. Some non-limiting examples of improved stress resilience are improved drought resistance, salinity stress, transplantation shock, long-term hardiness, high visible light stress, insect pest stress, fungal or bacterial stress, or other disease-related stress. The term “crop productivity” may in some cases be used interchangeably with “plant performance.” WSGR Docket No.50262-711.601 The term “long-term hardiness” as used herein refers to the ability of a plant to withstand one or more stresses during crop production and to allow desirable yield and / or quality of the plant at harvesting. Some non-limiting examples of how improved yield is measured include weight of harvestable crop material, such as lettuce leaves, soybeans, tomato fruit, in comparison to harvestable crop material where the seeds for sowing were not treated with UV-B. Other examples of how improved yield are measured include fresh shoot weight or whole plant dry weight, improved germination of seeds resulting from the treatment method, and improved water use efficiency of the resulting plant. In some cases, improved quality is assessed as a quantitative or qualitative assessment of at least one of a lack of blemishes on the crop (either internal or on the surface, typically from insects), improved shelf life, improved resistance to bruising or other post-harvest handling, lack of deformities, lack of irregular shapes, lack of irregular sizes, improved taste, size, shape, color, and texture. An advantage of the present disclosure is that both stress resilience and plant yield were observed (often these traits can work in an inverse relationship, where resilience is achieved at the cost of yield as seen with UV-C treatment). The term “ultraviolet (UV) irradiation” as used herein refers to electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than visible light, but longer than X-rays, and is in between the range of 10 nm to 400 nm (corresponding to 3 eV to 124 eV). The UV radiation spectrum is considered to be invisible to humans, and therefore differentiated from visible light in the spectrum of about 400 nm to 700 nm. The term “UV-B radiation” as used herein refers to radiation specifically within the waveband of 320 nm to 280 nm (herein described as the UV-B range). This is distinguishable from the UV-C waveband (280 to 100 nm) and UV-A waveband (400-320 nm). It should also be distinguishable from natural sunlight which although provides UV-B radiation, also includes other UV radiation. In some cases, the UV-B radiation is administered via LED lights. The term “harvestable crop material” as used herein refers to any material from the plant which may be harvested to be used for subsequent purposes or human or animal consumption. Often the crop material is harvested seeds to be consumed as food or used for subsequent planting or breeding purposes. The harvested material includes but is not limited to a fruit, a vegetable, a tree, a shrub, a grass, a herb, and an extract or component of any one of the above crop materials.
