Allelic differences in the key genes of betalain biosynthesis in table beet accessions with contrasting root color from the VIR collection

Труды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции
Background. Table beet (Beta vulgaris L.) contains a great amount of naturally red-colored betanins. A number of enterprises are forced to import foreign dyes because the reserves of domestic plant raw materials are insufficient.

Sucrose and light induced betalain biosynthesis in callus cultures of bougainvillea (Bougainvillea spp.)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2020
An attempt was made to substantiate the optimum sucrose level and light conditions for biosynthesis of betalain pigments (betaxanthins and betacyaninins) from callus cultures of bougainvillea (Bougainvillea spp.).

Pulsed Electric Field Processing Enhances the Endothelial Bioefficacy of Red Beet (Beta vulgaris L.) Extracts by Restoring Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase–Nitric Oxide Signaling in High‐Fat Diet Rats

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Pulsed electric field (PEF) processing qualitatively reshapes the phytochemical profile of red beet extracts, resulting in enhanced endothelial bioefficacy. Compared with conventional extraction, PEF‐treated extracts more effectively restore nitric oxide signaling, suppress endothelial inflammation, and normalize vascular structure in high‐fat diet ...

Anticancer and Anti‐Inflammatory Potential of Betalains: A Systematic Review on Preclinical Studies

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Betalains derived from diverse natural sources, including beetroot (Beta vulgaris), Opuntia ficus‐indica, yellow prickly pear, and Atriplex hortensis “rubra” leaf and seed extracts, as well as purified betalains (amaranthin, celosianin, betanin, betaxanthins, and related derivatives), exhibit significant anticancer and anti‐inflammatory activities in ...

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

BMC 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.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Insights Into Salinity Tolerance in Dry Pea

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major crop production constraint in dry pea (Pisum sativum L.), making the development of salt‐tolerant varieties essential to improve crop productivity and land‐use efficiency. The genetic mechanisms of salt tolerance in dry pea are largely unknown, and research on salt‐tolerant genes is limited.

Differential Effects of Betacyanin and Betaxanthin Pigments on Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Response in Murine Macrophages

Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, 2023
AbstractScope: Betalain pigments are increasingly highlighted for their bioactive and anti‐inflammatory properties, although research is lacking to demonstrate contributions of individual betalains. The work herein aimed to compare effects of four main betalains on inflammatory and cell‐protective markers and to highlight potential structure‐related ...
