UVB is slightly shorter, and part of it is absorbed by the atmosphere, but part of it can still reach the ground and help us synthesize vitamin D. UVC has the shortest wavelength, but don’t worry, it is basically blo

Photoreceptors in plants from ultraviolet light to far-red light

In the process of evolution, plants acquired phytochrome , which mainly receives light in the red light region, and multiple blue light receptors , including his lyptochrome and phototropin, in order to sense the light environment. .. In addition to these, an ultraviolet light receptor named UVR8 was recently discovered.
