Plants are exhibiting a colossal rebound in the context of healthier lifestyles, especially as functional foods empowered with bioactive phytochemicals; they synthesize uncountable ?ecochemicals? via secondary metabolism, which command medical and socioeconomic significance. Among these secondary metabolites, phenolic compounds are of prime interest and are largely present in medicinal plants, herbs, vegetables, and flowers. These metabolites are at the helm of the bitterness, color, and scent of plants, and are correlated to the beneficial health qualities expressed by the antioxidant capacity. The accretion of these health-promoting phytochemicals depends chiefly on the genetic material and the maturity stage at harvest, notwithstanding the main role that is played by preharvest factors, i.e., eustress, fertilization, irrigation, light, biostimulants, biofortification, and other agronomic practices. This Special Issue is a collection of 11 original research articles addressing the quality of seeds, microgreens, leafy vegetables, herbs, flowers, berries, fruits, and byproducts. Mainly preharvest factors were assessed regarding their effect on the qualitative aspects of the aforementioned plants. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 610 $achromium 610 $aethnopharmacology 610 $aflavonoids 610 $aglucose-lowering activity 610 $aHPLC 610 $anatural antioxidants 610 $apolyphenol 610 $aair humidity (RH) 610 $aLactuca sativa L. var. capitata 610 $acontrolled environment agriculture (CEA) 610 $abioactive compounds 610 $aleaf gas exchange 610 $aminerals profile 610 $agenetic material 610 $aprotected horticulture 610 $acrop sensor 610 $afunctional components 610 $areflectance spectroscopy 610 $aApiaceae 610 $aseeds 610 $aantioxidants 610 $apotassium 610 $atotal dissolved solids 610 $aprotein 610 $agrowing season 610 $aCichorium endivia L. var. crispum Hegi 610 $ayield 610 $asugars 610 $amineral profile 610 $aiodine concentration 610 $afunctional compounds 610 $aspace-stored seeds 610 $aSolanum lycopersicum L. 610 $aweightlessness 610 $acosmic radiation 610 $amacronutrients 610 $aSpinacia oleracea L. 610 $acarotenoids 610 $anitrates 610 $aphenolic acids 610 $aUHPLC-HRMS 610 $achlorophylls 610 $avitamin C 610 $atrans-resveratrol 610 $aesters 610 $aterpenols 610 $aglycosidic precursors 610 $aharvest time 610 $aVitis vinifera 610 $atomato and carrot by-products 610 $afreezing and drying impact 610 $aantioxidant capacity 610 $apolyphenolics 610 $avitamin E 610 $agreenhouse clear film 610 $agreenhouse diffuse-light film 610 $aspinach yield 610 $anitrate content 610 $aantioxidant activity 610 $aascorbic acid 610 $afloating raft system 610 $abiostimulant 610 $aroot application 610 $aanthocyanins 610 $aphenols 610 $areduced sugars 610 $acarbohydrates 610 $aminerals 610 $apigments 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 700 $aEl-Nakhel$b Christophe$4edt$01309880 702 $aSabatino$b Leo$4edt 702 $aEl-Nakhel$b Christophe$4oth 702 $aSabatino$b Leo$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585937303321 996 $aNutritive Value, Polyphenolic Content, and Bioactive Constitution of Green, Red and Flowering Plants$93029694 997 $aUNINA
