Anthocyanin Function in Vegetative Organs (2008, background): “Reflecting the resurgence of scientific interest in anthocyanin (and betalain) function in vegetative organs, several reviews have been written on this topic in recent years (Chalker-Scott 1999, 2002; Hoch et al. 2001; Gould et al. 2002b; Lee and Gould 2002a, 2002b; Steyn et al. 2002; Close and Bead”
α-Tocopherol may influence cellular signaling by modulating jasmonic acid levels in plants (2007, background): “In plants grown under a combination of high light and low temperatures, which may lead to excess light energy and favor anthocyanin accumulation ( Manetas 2006 ), age-dependent changes in tocopherols, indicators of photo-oxidative stress, phytohormone levels, plant growth, and anthocyanin accumulati”
Visual ecology of aphids—a critical review on the role of colours in host finding (2007, background): “Additional interest in the role of colours in host selection of aphids was recently created by the debate on autumn leaf colouration as a potential signal or cue to aphids (e.g., Sinkkonen 2006), initiated by a paper from Hamilton and Brown (2001); for a review see Manetas (2006).”
