Manipulation of Anthocyanin Accumulation by Vaccinium Pahalae in Vitro
Elicitation of the cells by both biotic (purified beta-glucan and chitosan) and abiotic (FeEDDHA and CuSO4) elicitors resulted in significant enhancement of anthocyanin accumulation. Maximum anthocyanin production using the two most effective elicitors (90 muM FeEDDHA or 10 mg L -1 beta-glucan) was …

Genetic and environmental drivers of fruit composition in relation to sensory quality in blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum)
The consumption of blueberries in the UK is increasing, but currently most of the available blueberries are imported. There is therefore great potential for UK growers to supply high quality blueberries to meet the consumer preferences. At present little is known regarding specific UK consumer …
