The red leaf coloration of several plant species during autumn and winter is due to the synthesis of phenolic compounds such as anthocyanins or red carotenoids. The latter occur very rarely and are non-ubiquitous and taxonomically restricted compounds. The present study shows that the leaves of

Red (retro)-carotenoids accumulate in chloroplasts of Buxus sempervirens leaves during the process of winter leaf acclimation. As a result of their irregular presence, different leaf colour phenotypes can be found simultaneously in the same location. Five different colour phenotypes (green, brown,

In this study, different solvent extracts (methanol, dichloromethane and n-hexane) from aerial and stem parts of Buxus papillosa C.K. Schneid (Buxaceae) were investigated for a panoply of bioassays. Biological profiles were established by determining antioxidant and enzyme inhibition profiles.
