The fruit of the pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is an important nutraceutical food rich in polyphenolic compounds, including hydrolysable tannins, anthocyanins and flavonols. Their composition varies according to cultivar, tissue and fruit development stage and is probably regulated by a

Coloration of plant organs such as fruit, leaves and flowers through anthocyanin production is governed by a combination of MYB and bHLH type transcription factors (TFs). In this study we introduced Rosea1 (ROS1, a MYB type) and Delila (DEL, a bHLH type), into Nicotiana benthamiana leaves by

BACKGROUND Consumption of medicinal plants to overcome diseases is traditionally belongs to the characteristics of most cultures on this earth. Sudan has been a host and cradle to various ancient civilizations and developed a vast knowledge on traditional medicinal plants. The present study was

UNASSIGNED This study illustrates the differences in the gene structure of 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenase involved in flavonoid biosynthesis (2ODD-IFB), and their potential roles in regulating tobacco flavonoid biosynthesis and plant growth. Flavonol synthase (FLS), anthocyanidin synthase (ANS),

Tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum L. Bright Yellow T-13) exposed to harmful naphthols accumulate them as glucosylated and further modified compounds [Taguchi et al. (2003a) Plant Sci. 164, 231-240]. In this study, we identified the accumulated compounds to be 6'-O-malonylated glucosides of naphthols.

Yields of extracted substances, as well as total phenol and flavonoid compounds obtained by classical and ultrasonic extractions from dry leaves of two tobacco types (oriental and Virginia) by two different solvents (acetone and methanol) at two operating temperatures (25 and 40 degrees C) were

Flavonoids are important secondary metabolites in plants regulated by the environment. To analyze the effect of light quality on the accumulation of flavonoids, we performed a rapid analysis of flavonoids in extracts of tobacco leaves using UHPLC-QTOF. A total of 12 flavonoids were detected and

Stress-responsive dihydroxy flavonoids exhibit capability to inhibit the accretion of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The formation of these dihydroxy flavonols is catalyzed by flavonoid hydroxylases which are among the rate limiting enzymes of flavonoid biosynthesis pathway. Although flavonoid

Epimedium species have been widely used both as traditional Chinese medicinal plants and ornamental perennials. Both flavonols, acting as the major bioactive components (BCs) and anthocyanins, predominantly contributing to the color diversity of Epimedium flowers belong to different classes of

The flower color of Syringa oblata Lindl., which is often modulated by the flavonoid content, varies and is an important ornamental feature. Chalcone synthase (CHS) catalyzes the first key step in the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway. However, little is known about the role of S. oblata CHS (SoCHS) in

Nicotabaflavonoidglycoside (1), a novel cembrane-type diterpenoid and flavonoid heterodimer had been isolated from the leaves of Nicotiana tabacum. Its structure was elucidated as (1″S, 6″S) or (1″R, 6″R)-8-[6″-((-)-(1″S, 2″E, 4″Z, 7″E, 11″E)-cembra-2″, 4″, 7″, 11″-tetraenyl)]-rutin by comprehensive

The expression of the Agrobacterium tumefaciens emrAB operon, which encodes a membrane fusion protein and an inner membrane protein, is inducible by various flavonoids, including apigenin, genistein, luteolin, naringenin, and quercetin. Among these flavonoids, quercetin is the best inducer, followed

Plant flavonoids are very important secondary metabolites for insect and virus control of their host plant and are potent nutrients for humans. To be able to understand the bioavailability and functions of plant flavonoids, it is necessary to reveal their exact chemical structures. Liquid

Tea possesses a distinctive flavor profile and can have health benefits owing to the high levels of flavonoids in its leaves. However, the mechanism of the flavonoid glycosylation hasn't been well studied in tea plants, especially glycosylation at the 7-OH site has rarely been reported. In this
