A high-resolution method for the localization of proanthocyanidins in plant tissues
Plant Methods, 2011 Background Histochemical staining of plant tissues with 4-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde (DMACA) or vanillin-HCl is widely used to characterize spatial patterns of proanthocyanidin accumulation in plant tissues. These methods are limited in their ability to

Carbon-13 cross-polarization magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (CPMAS NMR) for measuring proanthocyanidin content and procyanidin to prodelphinidin ratio in sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) tissues [PDF]
, 2018 A procedure based on 13C CPMAS NMR was developed to study procyanidins (PCs) and prodelphinidins (PDs) directly in milled sainfoin plant tissues. Blackcurrant and Tilia samples enabled reference spectra of purified proanthocyanidin (PA) fractions, crude ...

Involvement of the leaf-specific multidrug and toxic compound extrusion (MATE) transporter Nt-JAT2 in vacuolar sequestration of nicotine in Nicotiana tabacum [PDF]
, 2014 Alkaloids play a key role in higher plant defense against pathogens and herbivores. Following its biosynthesis in root tissues, nicotine, the major alkaloid of Nicotiana species, is translocated via xylem transport toward the accumulation sites, leaf ...
