Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Virtual Screening of Phytochemicals From Medicinal Plants as Promising PDE5 Inhibitors Against Erectile Dysfunction

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Phytochemicals from Algerian medicinal plants were virtually screened as potential phosphodiesterase‐5 (PDE5) inhibitors for erectile dysfunction therapy. Drug‐likeness and toxicity analyses identified catechin, ellagic acid, and rosmarinic acid as safe, bioavailable candidates.

Betalain production is possible in anthocyanin-producing plant species given the presence of DOPA-dioxygenase and L-DOPA

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2012
Background Carotenoids and anthocyanins are the predominant non-chlorophyll pigments in plants. However, certain families within the order Caryophyllales produce another class of pigments, the betalains, instead of anthocyanins.

Differential partitioning of betacyanins and betaxanthins employing aqueous two phase extraction

open access: yes, 2015
Yellow betaxanthins and red purple betacyanins are genetically and structurally closely related pigments, hence making their separation from each other difficult and tedious. Fractionation of betalains into betacyanin and betaxanthin could be achieved by

Pollinator, herbivore, and climatic selective pressures differ across a floral color transition zone

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Premise Spatial and temporal variations in climate and ecological interactions may underlie the origin and maintenance of floral color polymorphisms across a species range. Betalains are nitrogen‐containing, phylogenetically restricted pigments that, like the widespread and well‐studied anthocyanins and carotenoids, may attract pollinators ...
