Abstract: Pepper fruit is one of the highest vitamin C sources of plant origin for our diet. In plants, ascorbic acid is mainly synthesized through the L-galactose pathway, being the L-galactono-1,4-lactone dehydrogenase (GalLDH) the last step.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.2c01747
Abstract: The biosynthesis of 3-isobutyl-2-methoxypyrazine (IBMP) in bell pepper fruits (Capsicum annuum L.) was investigated by in vivo feeding experiments with stable isotope-labeled precursors. Volatiles were extracted using headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and analyzed by comprehensive… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.893055
Abstract: Capsicum spp. members are a rich source of specialized compounds due to their secondary metabolism. Some metabolic pathways have suffered modifications during the domestication process and improvement of agricultural traits. Here, we compared non-targeted LC–MS… read more here.
