Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Hue angle and chlorophylls decreased in broccoli during postharvest senescence.
- Observation Flavonoid content increased in broccoli during postharvest senescence.
- Intervention effect Most treatments that delayed senescence in broccoli also decreased flavonoid content, except visible light and UV-C treatments.
- Intervention effect Visible light and UV-C treatments increased flavonoid content in broccoli.
- Association Treatments that increased flavonoid biosynthesis in broccoli directly correlated with BoPAL gene expression.
- Association The correlation with flavonoid biosynthesis was not detected for the expression of BoCHS and BoCHI.
- Mechanism The authors suggest that BoPAL has a greater influence than BoCHS and BoCHI on regulation of the flavonoid pathway during broccoli senescence.
