Phenolic compounds are the most abundant secondary metabolites in plants, showing a
wide range of distinct biological activities, have received more and more attention in recent …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulate plant growth and development. ROS are kept at
low levels in cells to prevent oxidative damage, allowing them to be effective signaling …

Plant reproduction requires long-distance growth of a pollen tube to fertilize the female
gametophyte. Prior reports suggested that mutations altering synthesis of flavonoids, plant …

The flavonoid pathway produces a diverse array of plant compounds with functions in UV
protection, as antioxidants, pigments, auxin transport regulators, defence compounds …

There is a need to reappraise the effects of UV‐B radiation on plant morphology in light of
improved mechanistic understanding of UV‐B effects, particularly elucidation of the UV …

Background New roles for flavonoids, as developmental regulators and/or signalling
molecules, have recently been proposed in eukaryotic cells exposed to a wide range of …

Auxin and ethylene are key regulators of plant growth and development, and thus the
transcriptional networks that mediate responses to these hormones have been the subject of …

Phenolic secondary metabolites are only produced by plants wherein they play important
roles in both biotic and abiotic defense in seed plants as well as being potentially important …

To complete the metabolic map for an entire class of compounds, it is essential to identify
gene–metabolite correlations of a metabolic pathway. We used liquid chromatography …

Flavonoids and terpenoids are derived from distinct metabolic pathways but nevertheless
serve complementary roles in mediating plant interactions with the environment. Here, we …
