Anthocyanins in different <i>Citrus</i> species: an <scp>UHPLC‐PDA‐ESI</scp>/MS<i>ⁿ</i>‐assisted qualitative and quantitative investigation

Abstract

The present study is the first to report differentially expressed anthocyanin pigmentation patterns in different organs from several species of the genus Citrus. The results obtained could also represent a starting point for further investigations that aim to better understand which regulatory genes are involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis in the fruits, shoots and floral tissues of different Citrus species. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry.
