Recent advances in betalain research

TL;DR: It was found that the decisive steps in betalain biosynthesis, i.e. condensation of the betalains chromophore betalamic acid with cyclo-dopa and amino acids or amines in the respective aldimine formation of the red-violet betacyanins and the yellow betaxanthins are most likely to be non-enzymatic.

The origin and evolution of weed beets: consequences for the breeding and release of herbicide-resistant transgenic sugar beets.

TL;DR: It is shown that northern weed beet populations arise from seeds originating from the accidental pollinations of cultivated beets by adventitious beets in the seed production area, which have been transported to the regions where sugar beets are cultivated.

Beta section Beta : biogeographical patterns of variation, and taxonomy

TL;DR: Based on the experimental evidence described in Chapters 2 and 3 conclusions are drawn with respect to the classification of section Beta, and the number of infraspecific taxa in B. vulgaris is extensively reduced, the greatest allozyme diversity is met in accessions originating from the Mediterranean Basin.
