Melatonin in plants – diversity of levels and multiplicity of functions
Melatonin has been detected in numerous plant species. A particularly surprising finding concerns the highly divergent levels of melatonin that vary between species, organs and environmental conditions, from a few pg/g to over 20 µg/g, reportedly up to 200 µg/g. Highest values have been determined i...
