Raphanus with increased anthocyanin levels |
摘要 |
The present invention relates to plants of the genus Raphanus containing increased levels of anthocyanins. In particular the edible sprouts and turnips of the Raphanus plants contain high levels of anthocyanins and thereby provide health-promoting effects. The anthocyanins in the Raphanus plants are present at a level of at least 100 nmol per gram of fresh weight and have an absorbance maximum at a wavelength in the range of 515 to 550 nm. The invention also provides methods for growing the Raphanus plants as purple sprouts, both in the form of alfalfa-type sprouts as well as in the form of two-leafed plantlets, referred to as cress or micro-vegetables. The invention further provides methods for producing anthocyanins based on growing the Raphanus plants and isolating anthocyanins therefrom.
