Global gene expression was analyzed in the berry skin of two red grape cultivars, which can ('Jingyan') or cannot ('Jingxiu') synthesize anthocyanins after sunlight exclusion from fruit set until maturity. Gene transcripts responding to sunlight exclusion in 'Jingyan' were less complex than in 'Jingxiu'; 528 genes were induced and 383 repressed in the former, whereas 2655 genes were induced and...

the anthocyanins of the fruit skin of iranian forest pear (sange khouj) were separated, identified and quantified using high-performance liquid chromatography/diode array detection (hplc/dad) and hplc/electrospray ionization /mass spectrometry (hplc/esi /ms). the individual anthocyanins were identified by comparing their mass spectral data and retention times with those of standards and publish...

The red coloration of litchi fruit depends on the accumulation of anthocyanins. The anthocyanins level in litchi fruit varies widely among cultivars, developmental stages and environmental stimuli. Previous studies on various plant species demonstrate that anthocyanin biosynthesis is controlled at the transcriptional level. Here, we describe a litchi R2R3-MYB transcription factor gene, LcMYB1, ...

melissa officinalis l. is a well-known medicinal plant from the family of lamiaceae. the plant is high in flavonoid. flavonoids of lemon balm such as rosmarinic acid and anthocyanin have an antiviral and antioxidant effect. micronutrients are the element that is necessary for the plant in low concentration. in this experiment the effect of micronutrient (fe and zn) was examined on the anthocyan...

Anthocyanin accumulation specifically depends on sucrose (Suc) signaling/levels. However, the gene cascades specifically involved in the Suc signaling/level-mediated anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway are still unknown. Arabidopsis ANGUSTIFOLIA3 (AN3), a transcription coactivator, is involved in the regulation of leaf shape and drought tolerance. Recently, an AN3-CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 g...

Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is a native plant, which has many different cultivars in Iran. This plant consists of rich biochemical compounds that plays an important role in human health. This research aims to study some of biochemical compounds of this valuable fruit. Extract of pell and seeds and juice of fruits were prepared. According to the outcomes of this study, the...

Parijoto fruit (Medinilla speciosa) has a red color and contains anthocyanins. Anthocyanins have low stability due to the effect of heating. Copigmentation can be applied improve This research aims study anthocyanin extract from parijoto ratio copigment on concentration during heating at different temperatures durations. Anthocyanin copigmentation using tannic acid in 1:20 1:40 with control wit...
