Breaking the tight genetic linkage between the a1 and sh2 genes led to the development of anthocyanin-rich purple-pericarp super-sweetcorn

Scientific Reports, 2023
The existence of purple-pericarp super-sweetcorn based on the supersweet mutation, shrunken2 (sh2), has not been previously reported, due to its extremely tight genetic linkage to a non-functional anthocyanin biosynthesis gene, anthocyaninless1 (a1 ...

Weighted gene co-expression network analysis reveals key module and hub genes associated with the anthocyanin biosynthesis in maize pericarp

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Anthocyanins are the visual pigments that present most of the colors in plants. Its biosynthesis requires the coordinated expression of structural genes and regulatory genes. Pericarps are the rich sources of anthocyanins in maize seeds.

Xanthones from the Pericarp of Garcinia mangostana [PDF]

Molecules, 2017
Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) is one of the most popular tropical fruits (called the “Queen of Fruits”), and is a rich source of oxygenated and prenylated xanthone derivatives. In the present work, phytochemical investigation has resulted in one new prenylated xanthone and 13 known xanthones isolated from the pericarp of G. mangostana.

Biophysical and Morphometric Characteristics of Sunflower Achenes: Implications for Industrial Processing and Byproduct Utilization

Agronomy
The main focus of industrial sunflower processing is oil production, in which the pericarp is most often treated as a byproduct or biological waste. However, sunflower pericarps have shown significant potential for alternative applications.
