Biosynthesis and Degradation of Carotenoids in Ornamental Crops with specific reference to Chrysanthemum [PDF]
Carotenoids are lipophilic secondary metabolites derived from the isoprenoid pathway, accumulated in most plant organs and widely used as an antioxidant. Carotenoids synthesized in chloroplasts are essential for protecting tissues against photo-oxidative

Astaxanthin and Related Xanthophylls
This chapter describes astaxanthin and other xanthophylls, which are a class of carotenoids with oxygenated groups in their structure and characteristic vivid colors. Taking astaxanthin as a key example, the presented concepts focus on the functional aspects and applications of xanthophylls, such as their nutritional value, potential for protection ...

Peanut is one of the calciphilous plants. Calcium (Ca) serves as a ubiquitous central hub in a large number of signaling pathways. The effect of exogenous calcium nitrate [Ca(NO3)2] (6 mM) on the dissipation of excess excitation energy in the photosystem

ABSTRACT Drought limits the productivity of fast‐growing woody crops, although the metabolic adjustments conferring water stress tolerance remain poorly understood. We investigated the responses of Populus nigra seedlings to water stress by integrating daily physiological measurements and NMR metabolomic analyses.

Abstract Four marigold products, a bixin product, and two synthetic xanthophylls, canthaxanthin and β-apo-8′-carotenal, were evaluated for their effects on xanthophyll utilization and coloring capability in egg yolks. The selected sources, obtained as commercially available products, were added to a yellow corn basal diet containing 11 mg total ...

Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective
This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...

Alfalfa‐based silage pellets (ABSP) showed significant results regarding production performance, yolk colour and ω‐3 (PUFAs), as well as the ratio ω‐6/ω‐3 (p < 0.05). The ABSP group also exhibited a higher abundance of beneficial bacteria and a lower abundance of pathogenic bacteria compared to the control group (p < 0.05).
