Natural pigments derived from plants and microorganisms: classification, biosynthesis, and applications. [PDF]
Summary Pigments, as coloured secondary metabolites, endow the world with a rich palette of colours. They primarily originate from plants and microorganisms and play crucial roles in their survival and adaptation processes. In this article, we categorize pigments based on their chemical structure into flavonoids, carotenoids, pyrroles, quinones ...

Above- and belowground herbivory jointly impact defense and seed dispersal traits in Taraxacum officinale [PDF]
Plants are able to cope with herbivores by inducing defensive traits or growth responses that allow them to reduce or avoid the impact of herbivores. Since above- and belowground herbivores differ substantially in life-history traits, for example feeding
