Increased anthocyanin and flavonoids in mango fruit peel are associated with cold and pathogen resistance (2016, background): “Anthocyanins are phenylpropanoids widely distributed in most vascular plants where they serve as inducible sunshields (Grotewold, 2006).”
Response of Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism and Secondary Metabolites to Drought Stress and Salt Stress in Plants (2019, background): “Influence of drought stress and salt stress on the photosynthesis in plant Stress Plant Response of plants to stress Influence path Reference Drought stress Triticale and Wheat Decreased leaf extension Leaf morphology Lonbani and Arzani (2011) Cucumber Increased the thickness of grana and the length”
Trafficking and Sequestration of Anthocyanins (2008, background): “Among several other functions [1], anthocyanins participate in providing cues to pollinators and seed dispersers [2].”
Forget-me-not: Complex floral displays, inter-signal interactions, and pollinator cognition (2011, background): “From the standpoint of floral signal production, sensory modalities are most commonly researched separately (e.g. Dudareva and Pichersky, 2006; Grotewold, 2006).”
The Regulation of Flavonoid Biosynthesis (2006, background): “Anthocyanins are stored in the vacuole and their color not only depends on the substitution pattern of the molecule but also on the conditions in the vacuolar lumen, such as the pH, the concentration of metal ions and (flavonoid) copigments, and the way anthocyanins are packed (Grotewold, 2006).”
Naturally Occurring Anthocyanin, Structure, Functions and BiosyntheticPathway in Fruit Plants (2017, background): “The synthetic pathway of anthocyanin is also well implicated and conserved among most of seed plants [3,81].”
Genetic engineering in floriculture (2004, background): “Flower color comes mainly from flavonoids/anthocyanins, carotenoids, and betalains (see recent reviews: Grotewold 2006; Tanaka et al. 2008).”
Light-dependent regulation of carotenoid biosynthesis in plants (2009, background): “In fl owers and fruits, the presence of these pigmented molecules serves to attract pollinators and seed dispersal agents to the intense yellow, orange and red colors that they provide (Grotewold, 2006).”
Abiotic factors may explain the geographical distribution of flower colour morphs and the maintenance of colour polymorphism in the scarlet pimpernel (2013, background): “This polymorphism can occur without any alteration of the responsible pigments involved, for example through vacuolar pH changes (Grotewold 2006).”
Plant pigments: the many faces of light perception (2011, positive): “Flavonoids are the most common flower color pigments and it is on this class of substances that most research has been done, with anthocyanins being the chief among pigments (Grotewold 2006).”
