Anthocyanins are natural pigments with antioxidant effects that exist in various fruits and
vegetables. The accumulation of anthocyanins is induced by environmental signals and …

Anthocyanins are important health-promoting pigments that make a major contribution to the
quality of fruits. The biosynthetic pathway leading to anthocyanins is well known and the key …

Red fruits are popular and widely accepted by consumers because of an enhanced
appearance and enriched anthocyanins. The molecular mechanism of anthocyanin …

Anthocyanin pigmentation is an important consumer trait in peach (Prunus persica). In this
study, the genetic basis of the blood‐flesh trait was investigated using the cultivar …

Light is one of the most important environmental factors affecting flavonoid biosynthesis in
plants. The absolute dependency of light to the plant development has driven evolvement of …

Plant hormones have been extensively studied for their roles in the regulation of various
aspects of plant development. However, in the last decade important new insights have …

Anthocyanins represent the major red, purple, violet and blue pigments in many flowers and
fruits. They attract pollinators and seed dispersers and defend plants against abiotic and …

Tomato ripening is a highly coordinated developmental process that coincides with seed
maturation. Regulated expression of thousands of genes controls fruit softening as well as …

Flavonoids are secondary metabolites involved in several aspects of plant development and
defence. They colour fruits and flowers, favouring seed and pollen dispersal, and contribute …

Fruiting structures in the angiosperms range from completely dry to highly fleshy organs and
provide many of our major crop products, including grains. In the model plant Arabidopsis …
