Drought stress can in-duce plant cel s to synthesize and accumulate anthocyanins. The photochemical properties, subcel ular accumulation sites and spatial distributions in plant organs and tissues of anthocyanins determine their function of strengthening plant tolerance, which is realized by three possible physiological mechanisms: (1) anthocyanins and their chelated metal ions can optimize the osmoregulation ability of the plant cel s by directly acting as the osmoregulation substances of the cel s, (2) anthocyanins with suitable spatial locations can reduce the photoinhibition of the plants under drought stresses, (3) anthocyanins can effectively maintain and improve the active oxygen-scavenging capacity of the plant cel s under drought conditions. Therein, that the anthocyanins enhance the antioxidant capacity of the plant cel s under drought stresses is probably the main reason for the anthocyanins to strengthen the drought tolerance of plants. This review could provide a reference for the mechanism re-search of the drought resistance and the breeding of the drought-resistant cultivars for the plants holding the ability to synthesize and accumulate anthocyanins.展开更多
The data on chemical compounds of three Rododendron species (Rh. adamsii Rehd., Rh. aureum Georgi. and Rh. lapponicum subsp, parvifolium (Adams) T.

Yamaz.) from the mountain of Evota top in South Yakutia are shown. Extracts of these plants was analyzed by method of planar chromatography in thin layers using different specific detectors to exposure of some groups of biologically active matters. During the researches, it was established that polyphenol compounds of different degree of condensment prevail in rhododendron composition; catechines, flavonoids, coumarins, saponins, essential oils, phenol carboxylic acids and arbutin are present too. Due to detected features, all the researched species of rhododendrons are perspective for practical using in food industry and as adaptogenes for maintenance of people health in the conditions of north.展开更多

The main results indicate that the heredity of Cyclamen persicum color follows both quantitative and qualitative hereditary regularity. All genes can be classified as two groups of the throat-gene and coronal-gene occupying different spots on the chromosome. The colored gene is the dominant gene, while the white gene is the recessive one. The gene groups and their quantity determine the color of cyclamen persicum. And sometimes the throat- gene and the coronal-gene take a recombination, forming a new type of flower.展开更多
