Recent research highlights the potential of Egyptian chicory (Cichorium endive Supp. Pumillum) as a natural antifungal agent, emphasizing the role of red and blue LED light in enhancing its bioactive compound production. The study, which focused on the biosynthesis of flavonoids and phenolic compounds in callus cultures, found that exposure to red LED light significantly increased the accumulation of these metabolites, leading to potent antifungal activity against Candida albicans. The extracts derived from red light-treated cultures were notably more effective than those from blue light or control treatments. These findings suggest that red light elicitation can optimize the production of valuable bioactive compounds in Cichorium spp., paving the way for their application in natural antifungal therapies. Future research will delve into the mechanisms underlying flavonoid accumulation under varying light conditions, as well as exploring this technique’s applicability to other medicinal plants.
