Plant Anthocyanins: Biosynthesis, Bioactivity and in vitro Production from tissue cultures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Anthocyanins, one of the most important plant metabolites, are a group of naturally occurring pigments responsible for redblue coloration in most fruits and vegetables. Belonging to the “flavonoid family”, their structures (more than 500 in number) have been intensively elucidated [1,2]. Anthocyanins are of immense human interest due to their potential implications in maintenance of human health.

In the last years many studies on anthocyanins, the flavonoids responsible for the orange, red and blue colors in different plant organs, have revealed their antioxidant activity and a possible use as chemotherapeutics. The finding that tart cherries (Prunus cerasus L.) contain a great amount of anthocyanins, constituents that possess strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, have at...

Valerian (Valeriana officinalis L.) is an important medicinal plant that is widely exploited for its roots and rhizomes which contain valepotriates and valerenic acids (with putative pharmacological activities). Thus root proliferation of valerian is very important. The aim of this study was to establish a practical tissue culture method for rapid and large-scale induction of V. officinalis L. ...

The red-fleshed apples are from varieties of apples confer the competence and high ability in vitro to produce anthocyanins in their organs. Several factors affect the in vitro production of anthocyanins in plant tissue culture and to produce high, the optimizing of these factors are very necessary. Light is one of the most important factors that many studies have been done in this area but the...
