“…This flower color transition could be caused by either of these or some combination of the two since these genes are responsible for the synthesis of two different types of anthocyanins: delphinidin-derivatives (in the case of L. arvensis this is malvidin that produces the blue color) and pelargonidin-derivatives (orange; Figure 7 ; Smith and Rausher, 2011 ; Smith et al, 2012 ; Wheeler and Smith, 2019 ). These biochemical results are consistent with previous findings in L. arvensis ( Lawrence et al, 1939 ; Harborne, 1968 ; Ishikura, 1981 ; Kawashty et al, 1998 ). Several additional ABP genes with differential expression in blue- vs. orange-flowered plants were consistent with the post-translational modifications of these principle pigments.…”

“…Although the predominant flavonoids extracted and detected in L. arvensis petals were blue and orange anthocyanins, we also found three additional flavonoids representing intermediates and side-branches to the ABP. The flavone luteolin 7-glucoside was previously found in blue petals of L. arvensis ( Ishikura, 1981 ) and two flavonols were present in our orange samples: kaempferol 3-glucoside (also identified in Kawashty et al, 1998 ) and syringetin (this is the first record for compound in L. arvensis , although it was previously reported in L. congestiflora according to Guo et al, 1998 ). These compounds are known to have some functions outside of traditional pollinator attraction ( Winkel-Shirley, 2002 ; Jiang et al, 2016 ).…”

Changes at a Critical Branchpoint in the Anthocyanin Biosynthetic Pathway Underlie the Blue to Orange Flower Color Transition in Lysimachia arvensis

Anthocyanins are the primary pigments contributing to the variety of flower colors among angiosperms and are considered essential for survival and reproduction. Anthocyanins are members of the flavonoids, a broader class of secondary metabolites, of which there are numerous structural genes and regulators thereof. In western European populations of Lysimachia arvensis, there are blue- and orange-petaled individuals. The proportion of blue-flowered plants increases with temperature and daylength yet decreases with precipitation. Here, we performed a transcriptome analysis to characterize the coding sequences of a large group of flavonoid biosynthetic genes, examine their expression and compare our results to flavonoid biochemical analysis for blue and orange petals. Among a set of 140 structural and regulatory genes broadly representing the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, we found 39 genes with significant differential expression including some that have previously been reported to be involved in similar flower color transitions. In particular, F3′5′H and DFR, two genes at a critical branchpoint in the ABP for determining flower color, showed differential expression. The expression results were complemented by careful examination of the SNPs that differentiate the two color types for these two critical genes. The decreased expression of F3′5′H in orange petals and differential expression of two distinct copies of DFR, which also exhibit amino acid changes in the color-determining substrate specificity region, strongly correlate with the blue to orange transition. Our biochemical analysis was consistent with the transcriptome data indicating that the shift from blue to orange petals is caused by a change from primarily malvidin to largely pelargonidin forms of anthocyanins. Overall, we have identified several flavonoid biosynthetic pathway loci likely involved in the shift in flower color in L. arvensis and even more loci that may represent the complex network of genetic and physiological consequences of this flower color polymorphism.

“…Anagallis arvensis has been reported to contain saponins (Napoli et al, 1992;Shoji et al, 1994) and flavonoids (Kawashty et al, 1998); few works on biological effects have also been published (Shehata and Nassef, 1956;Rothwell and Marshall, 1986;Amoros et al, 1988;Ali-Shtayeh and Abu Ghdeib, 1999;Rivero et al, 2001;Apak et al, 2006). However, there are no pharmacognostic studies about Anagallis foemina.…”

Anagallis arvesnsis belongs to family primulacae. It is a summer annual herb distributed worldwide or with a global spread abundantly found in Egypt, Palestine, a non-tropical region of South America, Taiwan, and India (more specifically Jammu & Kashmir). Different parts of plant contain variety of active constituents; such as glycosides, saponin, flavonoid, anthraquinone, alkaloids, rutin, kaempferol, oleananetriterpenes, anagalligenin, anagalligenone, stigasetrol, arvenin I, arvenin II, cucurbitacin B, D, E, I,L& Q, nhexosamine, β-amyrin, sterols carbohydrates, lacceric acid. Anagallis arvensis has recognized medicinal values as an anti-mycotic, antimicrobial, molluscicidal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antileishmania, antiviral, cytotoxic, and spermatogenesis. The present review will highlight the traditional uses, phytoconstituents and pharmacological effects of Anagallis arvensis.
