Flavonoids are characterized as the low molecular weight polyphenolic compounds
universally distributed in planta. They are a chemically varied group of secondary …

Phenylpropanoids and flavonoids are specialized metabolites frequently reported as
involved in plant defense to biotic or abiotic stresses. Their biosynthetic accumulation may …

Whether flavonoids play significant antioxidant roles in plants challenged by photooxidative
stress of different origin has been largely debated over the last few decades. A critical review …

Almost a century after Muriel Wheldale's landmark publication,“The Anthocyanin Pigments of
Plants”(Wheldale, 1916), much about anthocyanin function in plants remains to be …

Stress-responsive dihydroxy B-ring-substituted flavonoids have great potential to inhibit the
generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reduce the levels of ROS once they are …

Flavonoids and phenolic acids make up one of the most pervasive groups of plant
phenolics. Due to their importance in plants and human health, it would be useful to have a …

Phenylpropanoids, particularly flavonoids have been recently suggested as playing primary
antioxidant functions in the responses of plants to a wide range of abiotic stresses …

We discuss on the relative significance of different functional roles potentially served by
flavonoids in photoprotection, with special emphasis to their ability to scavenge reactive …

Flavonoids have long been recognized as playing multiple roles in the responses of higher
plants to a wide range of environmental constraints (Winkel-Shirley, 2002; Roberts & Paul …

From an evolutionary perspective, the emergence of the sophisticated chemical scaffolds of
flavonoid molecules represents a key step in the colonization of Earth's terrestrial …
