Transcriptional control of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes in the Caryophyllales [PDF]
Anthocyanins and betacyanins, two types of red pigment, have never been found to occur together in plants. Although anthocyanins are widely distributed in higher plants, betacyanins have replaced anthocyanins in the Caryophyllales. The accumulation of flavonols in the Caryophyllales suggests that the step(s) of anthocyanin biosynthesis from ...

Crassulacean acid metabolism in the Basellaceae (Caryophyllales)
Abstract C4 and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) have evolved in the order Caryophyllales many times but neither C4 nor CAM have been recorded for the Basellaceae, a small family in the CAM‐rich sub‐order Portulacineae. 24 h gas exchange and day–night changes in titratable acidity were measured in leaves of Anredera baselloides exposed to wet–dry ...

Anthocyanin synthesis potential in betalain-producing Caryophyllales plants
AbstractAlthough anthocyanins are widely distributed in higher plants, betalains have replaced anthocyanins in most species of the order Caryophyllales. The accumulation of flavonols in Caryophyllales plants implies that the late step of anthocyanin biosynthesis from dihydroflavonols to anthocyanins may be blocked in Caryophyllales.

In planta complementation of the betalain biosynthetic pathway with a bacterial dioxygenase. [PDF]
Betalains are pigments naturally produced by plants belonging to the order Caryophyllales. However, 4,5-L-DOPA-extradiol-dioxygenase (DODA), the main enzyme in their biosynthetic pathway, has also been characterized in other kingdoms including fungi or ...

The multipartite mitochondrial genome of Fallopia multiflora (Caryophyllales: Polygonaceae) [PDF]
Fallopia multiflora is an important Oriental herb belonging to the family Polygonaceae. The F. multiflora mitochondrial genome consists of two circular chromosomes that were 200,352- and 112,098-nucleotides long. The mitochondrial genome encodes 57 genes,

Assembly and Characterization of the Mitochondrial Genome of Fallopia aubertii (L. Henry) Holub
Background: Fallopia aubertii (L. Henry) Holub is a perennial semi-shrub with both ornamental and medicinal value. The mitochondrial genomes of plants contain valuable genetic traits that can be utilized for the exploitation of genetic resources.

Proof of anthocyanins in the carnivorous plant genus Nepenthes
Yellow to red colored betalains are a chemotaxonomic feature of Caryophyllales, while in most other plant taxa, anthocyanins are responsible for these colors.
