ANTHOCYANINS OF DIMORPHOTHECA (COMPOSITAE). I. IDENTITY OF PIGMENTS IN FLOWERS, STEMS, AND CALLUS CULTURES
Abstract
Anthocyanins isolated from ray flowers, disk florets, stem, and callus cultures of Dimorphotheca sinuata were identified and found to be cyanidin‐3‐glucoside and dephinidin‐3‐glucoside. The anthocyanins of the callus cultures were of the same identity as those in the whole plant, demonstrating that these glucosides are produced in the same manner under autophytic and heterophytic conditions. The use of this callus culture in experimental studies of anthocyanin production is discussed.
