Flower Color, Color Stability, and Flower Longevity in Red-flowered Elepidote Rhododendrons [PDF]

HortTechnology, 2017
Red-flowered elepidote rhododendrons ( Rhododendron sp.) are favored by consumers, but cold-hardy red-flowered rhododendrons frequently have blue-red flower hue rather than the preferred red flower hue.

Characterization of Two Key Flavonoid 3-O-Glycosyltransferases Involved in the Formation of Flower Color in Rhododendron Delavayi

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Flower color, largely determined by anthocyanin, is one of the most important ornamental values of Rhododendron delavayi. However, scant information of anthocyanin biosynthesis has been reported in R. delavayi.

Floral Color Diversity: How Are Signals Shaped by Elevational Gradient on the Tropical–Subtropical Mountainous Island of Taiwan?

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Pollinators with different vision are a key driver of flower coloration. Islands provide important insights into evolutionary processes, and previous work suggests islands may have restricted flower colors. Due to both species richness with high endemism

The colorful language of Australian flowers [PDF]

Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2014
The enormous increase in phylogenetic information in recent years has allowed many old questions to be reexamined from a macroevolutionary perspective. We have recently considered evolutionary convergence in floral colors within pollination syndromes, using bird-pollinated species in Australia.

Exploring the Molecular Mechanism of Blue Flower Color Formation in Hydrangea macrophylla cv. “Forever Summer”

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Hydrangea macrophylla has a large inflorescence and rich colors, which has made it one of the most popular ornamental flowers worldwide. Thus far, the molecular mechanism of flower color formation in H. macrophylla flowers is unknown.

Indirect Selection on Flower Color in Silene littorea

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Flower color, as other floral traits, may suffer conflicting selective pressures mediated by both mutualists and antagonists. The maintenance of intraspecific flower color variability has been usually explained as a result of direct selection by biotic ...

Selection and Validation of Reference Genes for Quantitative Real-Time PCR Analysis of Development and Tissue-Dependent Flower Color Formation in Cymbidium lowianum

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
The development and tissue-dependent color formation of the horticultural plant results in various color pattern flowers. Anthocyanins and carotenoids contribute to the red and yellow colors, respectively. In this study, quantitative real-time polymerase

The biochemical and molecular investigation of flower color and scent sheds lights on further genetic modification of ornamental traits in Clivia miniata

Horticulture Research, 2022
Clivia miniata is renowned for its evergreen and strap-like leaves, whereas its floral color and scent are lacking diversity. Here, anthocyanin, volatile terpene, and carotenoid metabolisms were integrally investigated in C. miniata flowers.
