“…These findings are consistent with previous studies on rose petals, in which the anthocyanin content was within the range of 0.05 to 6 mg CE/g dw [2,17,19]. The low values of lightcolored Argentinian roses were also in agreement with those of Yeon and Kim [20] and dos Santos [2], who reported the absence of anthocyanin or a content of 0.05 mg CE/g dw, respectively, for white rose cultivars. Our research revealed that anthocyanins constitute approximately 1% of the total phenolic compounds in dark red cultivars.…”

The total phenolic, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents were evaluated in 11 cultivars of Argentinian roses of different colors. HPLC-ESI-QTOF/MS was used to identify the components where ellagic and quinic acids, quercetin, and kaempferol glycosylated derivatives were found. The phenolic contents ranged from 78.8 ± 3.2 to 203.4 ± 3.1 mg GAE/g dw, the flavonoid content ranged from 19.1 ± 3.8 to 125.9 ± 6.5 mg QE/g dw, and the anthocyanin content ranged from less than 0.01 to 5.8 ± 0.1 mg CE/g dw. The dark red cultivars exhibited the greatest levels of the analyzed compounds and of the antioxidant activities, even higher than those of certain plants known for their high phenolic contents and antioxidant activity. Moreover, the addition of these extracts decreased the population of L. innocua and P. aeruginosa to undetectable levels 24 h after inoculation. Rose petal extracts, mainly those with a dark red color, can be used as natural additives in food, feed, and cosmetics, as they contain a high proportion of bioactive compounds with antioxidant and antimicrobial effects.

“…Previous studies over the past two decades have reported correlations between color and scent biosynthesis pathways and the critical roles they have played in ecology and the horticultural industry (O'Neill, 1997;Delle-Vedove et al, 2011;Dormont et al, 2014;Yeon and Kim, 2020a). Floral pigments and scent compounds constantly change their composition during flowering as a result of GA activity controlling flower development and creating a time gap for the biosynthesis of pigments and scent compounds (Yeon and Kim, 2020b).…”

Flower color and fragrance are important traits that give ornamental plants their value. The synergistic combination of flower color and scent attracts pollinators with specific preferences. In this study, we discuss the connection between biosynthetic pathways leading to color and scent in flowers. Pigments and scent compounds in flowers vary in phenol and terpene contents, providing many combinations of color and scent. Many floral pigments and scent compounds share the same biosynthetic pathways, including the shikimate (SA), methylerythritol 4-phosphate (MEP), and mevalonate (MVA) pathways. In addition to reviewing the biosynthesis, functions, and changes in floral color and scent in relation to abiotic factors, we suggest a novel schematic diagram of the shared biosynthetic pathways in flowering plants for floral pigments and scent compounds classified as phenolics and terpenes. Although more information is still needed, it seems clear that the color and scent of flowers have a biochemical connection and are a selective choice. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the biochemical linkage between the color and fragrance of flowers is critical for developing new varieties with novel traits.

“…A previous study showed that pollinator-mediated selection on floral traits can occur simultaneously, leading to specific scent–color combinations as the pollination syndromes ( Fenster et al., 2004 ). Several studies also revealed the pigment–scent connection in anthocyanin synthesis plants ( Majetic et al., 2010 ; Yeon and Kim, 2020 ; Yeon and Kim, 2021 ), but few have focused on betalain synthesis in plants ( Majetic et al., 2010 ). We found that the trend of GERD gene expression was significantly upregulated following increased Aa value, which was also validated in RT-qPCR experiment.…”

Bracts are the metamorphic non-flower organ in angiosperm plants. The variation of the color and shape of bracts was found to be neo-functionalized (i.e., similar to petals), garnering research interest as a pollinator attractor. Bougainvillea is known for its specialized, large, and colorful bracts, which contrast with its tiny colorless flowers. As a plant whose bracts vary greatly in terms of coloration, the molecular mechanisms for Bougainvillea bract coloration and polychroism are largely unknown. The lack of genomic information for Bougainvillea largely hinders studies into the evolution and genetic basis of bract color variation. In this study, a pan-transcriptome of bracts obtained from 18 Bougainvillea glabra accessions was employed to investigate the global population-level germplasm kinship and the gene regulation network for bract color variation. Our results showed that the bracts of B. glabra accessions have largely differentiated International Commission on Illumination (CIE) L-a-b values. Moreover, germplasm kinship detected using principal component analysis, phylogeny, and admixture analysis showed three optimal subgroups, two of them distinctly clustered, which were not directly correlated with bract color variation at the population level. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between accessions of high vs. low L-a-b values revealed several considerable upregulated genes related to bract color L-a-b variation. A weighted gene co-expression network was constructed, and eight co-expressed regulation modules were identified that were highly correlated with variation in bract CIE L-a-b color values. Several candidate DEGs and co-expressed hub genes (e.g., GERD, SGR, ABCA3, GST, CYP76AD1, CYP76C, and JAZ) that were tightly associated with bract color variation were eventually determined responsible for L-a-b colorations, which might be the core regulation factors contributing to the B. glabra bract color variation. This study provides valuable insights into the research on germplasm kinship, population-level pan-transcriptome expression profiles, and the molecular basis of color variation of key innovative bracts in horticultural Bougainvillea.
