Photosynthetic pigments, betalains, proteins, sugars, and minerals during Salicornia brachiata senescence

Biologia Plantarum, 2018
Senescence is the last developmental stage in plants during which recycling of nutrients takes place from senescing organs to newly formed organs such as young leaves and developing seeds.

Reduction of selected betacyanins

, 2014
Betacyanins are conjugates of betalamic acid and glycosylated cyclo-DOPA which bring about the creation of a specific chromophoric system, the 1,7-diazaheptamethin chain. Betanin, a betacyanin pigment from red beet (Beta vulgaris L.), as well as its decarboxylated derivatives were subjected to reduction with the use of NaBH4.

Tissue localization of betacyanins in cactus stems

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012
Betalains are soluble pigments found only in the suborder Chenopodiniae, while in all other Angiospermaethey are replaced by anthocyanins. The convergent evolution of the presence of anthocyanins and betalains invegetative tissues supports the hypothesis of a similar function, based on the absorption properties of these pigments.The screening effect of
