Transcriptome analyses shed light on floral organ morphogenesis and bract color formation in Bougainvillea [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2022 Abstract Background Bougainvillea is a popular ornamental plant with brilliant color and long flowering periods. It is widely distributed in the tropics and subtropics. The primary ornamental part of the plant is its colorful and unusual bracts, rich in the stable pigment betalain.

Molecules, 2022 Betalains in bracts of Bougainvillea are of great application potential as natural food colorants and antioxidants. This study explored the color, spectra, composition, storage stability, and antioxidant properties of betalain-based Bougainvillea bracts extracts (BBEs) to verify their application value. The results showed that Bougainvillea bract color

THE ROLE OF COLORED ACCESSORY BRACTS IN THE REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OFLAVANDULA STOECHAS [PDF]
Ecology, 1997 This study investigates the role played by showy structures in the reproduction of Lavandula stoechas L. (Lamiaceae), a self-compatible Mediterranean shrub with compact, head-like inflorescences that are terminated by a tuft of conspicuous pink bracts. Pollinator visitation rates to plants with bracts correlated positively with that of paired, treated ...

Malvidin 3-Rutinoside as the Pigment Responsible for Bract Color inCurcuma alismatifolia
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2000 Malvidin 3-rutinoside was the only anthocyanin identified from pink bracts of Curcuma alismatifolia cultivars. The concentration of malvidin 3-rutinoside in three cultivars increased as the intensity of the pink color in the bracts increased.

The Effect of Temperature on Sub-terminal Bract Coloration of Poinsettia ‘Stoplight’1
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1970 Abstract The poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch) cultivar ‘Stoplight’ was introduced to the floriculture industry in 1965 by Robert N. Stewart, U.S.D.A. at Beltsville, Maryland. The sub-terminal bracts of the cultivar have coloration in addition to those located terminally.

PLOS ONE, 2019 Populations of scarlet Indian paintbrush (Castilleja coccinea) in the Midwestern United States exhibit a bract color polymorphism, with each population having predominantly yellow or scarlet bracts. We investigated a possible mechanism for this maintenance of bract color polymorphism in C.

Quality‐driven reformulation of Plantago ovata enriched non‐fermented beef salami
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Plantago ovata (psyllium) is a hydrocolloid additive that is used widely in foods; however, meat applications of this bioactive ingredient are limited. This study evaluated the effects of 0% to 5% Plantago husk on non‐fermented beef salami during 60 days of storage. Proximate composition, physicochemical properties, texture profile,
