Diacylated flavonol glycosides are the response of Scots pine seedlings to UV‐B irradiation. The two induced compounds 1 and 2 both have their absorption maximum at 315 nm (ϵ = 50300) in the range of UV‐B radiation (290–320 nm), are compartmented in the epidermis, and offer much better protection than the monoacylated analogues at the same molarity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
