Abstract：Capsaicinoids is a type of natural secondary metabolites unique to the fruits of the genusCapsicum，which have significant use in both the food business and the treatment of human diseases，andtheir biosynthesis is regulated by the light environment and genetic factors．Research has indicated that thebiosynthesis of capsaicinoids is affected by monochromatic blue，red and far-red light and light intensity．This paper reviewed the research advances on the effect of light on the biosynthesis of capsaicinoids and theirtranscriptional regulation mechanism，which provides theoretical references for the analysis of the anabolicregulation mechanism of capsaicinoids in specific light environments．
