Effect of anthocyanins, carotenoids, and flavonols on chlorophyll fluorescence excitation spectra in apple fruit: signature analysis, assessment, modelling, and relevance to photoprotection.

abstract：:Non-invasive X-ray computed tomography (XRCT) is increasingly used in rhizosphere research to visualize development of soil-root interfaces in situ. However, exposing living systems to X-rays can potentially impact their processes and metabolites. In order to evaluate these effects, we assessed the responses of rhizos...
