A multiscale approach to understanding the shared blue-orange flower color polymorphism in two Lysimachia species

BMC Plant Biology
Background Polymorphisms are common in nature, but they are rarely shared among closely related species. Polymorphisms could originate through convergence, ancestral polymorphism, or introgression. Although shared neutral genomic variation across species

Secondary metabolites in Gerbera hybrida [PDF]

, 2008
Plants produce a diversity of secondary metabolites, i.e., low-molecular-weight compounds that have primarily ecological functions in plants. The flavonoid pathway is one of the most studied biosynthetic pathways in plants.

INVESTIGATION OF CYANIDIN AND PELARGONIDIN CONTENTS IN THE GENUS FRAGARIA L.

Acta Horticulturae, 2009
The fruit cyanidin (Cyn) and pelargonidin (Plr) contents in 73 Fragaria accessions were assayed using a modified HPLC method, and % Cyn (Cyn as % of Cyn-plus-Plr) values were calculated. Plr content increased during fruit ripening, while Cyn content held steady.

Evolution and Domestication of a Novel Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Contributing to the Flavonoid Metabolism and High‐Altitude Adaptability of Plants in the Fagopyrum Genus

Advanced Science
The diversity of secondary metabolites is an important means for plants to cope with the complex and ever‐changing terrestrial environment. Plant biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) are crucial for the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites.
