Abstract | ||||
Light is a main environmental reason affecting different plants' growth, appearance, and metabolism. This work aimed to compare the green-red appearing Chenopodium murale plants. Acidic methanol was used to extract pigments of C. murale colored leaves and C-18 columns were used to fractionate the colored phytochemical compounds. UV-VIS spectrum was used to differentiate the different obtained colored fractions. This study revealed how environmental conditions could shape plants and lead them to manage their metabolites in response to the surrounding conditions.. | ||||
