Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Six Iris germanica cultivars with different flower colors contained similar pigments.
- Observation All studied iris cultivars shared one anthocyanin and other flavonoids.
- Observation The anthocyanin delphanin was unstable during extraction and chromatography.
- Association Differences in flower color were not explained by flavonoid occurrence.
- Mechanism The authors found evidence that anthocyanin pigment forms complexes in vivo.
