“…Dopamine hydroxylation by dopamine-β-monooxygenase leads to synthesis of norepinephrine, which is subsequently methylated to epinephrine. From a broad range of plants, banana fruit, and, particularly, Cavendish banana, have the richest content in cathecolamines and, particularly, in dopamine: 100 μg/g FW in Cavendish banana peel compared with 7 μg/g FW for potato, the second richest plant of this list (Kulma and Szopa 2007). This observation suggests that cathecolamines might play an important role in banana physiology.…”

“…Various functions, including plant-pathogen resistance, have been proposed for catecholamines (Kulma and Szopa 2007;Swiedrych et al 2004). Effects are probably due to the antioxidant properties of catecholamines themselves and also to cellwall deposition and the antioxidant properties of derivatives (Kulma and Szopa 2007).…”

“…Unlike humans and animals, plants do not possess nervous systems of integrated neural networks. However, more findings reveal that they synthesise neurotransmitters such as dopamine, exerting specific activities probably as deterrent when interacting directly with other living organisms (Roshchina, 2010;Kulma and Szopa, 2007). In various plants such as tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), potato (Solanum tuberosum), pepper (Piper nigrum), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and onions (Allium cepa), derivatives of tyramines such as dopamine-and octopamine-conjugates of hydroxycinnamic acids are synthesised in response to infections from microorganisms, stress and wounding (Zacarés et al, 2007;Von RoepenackLahaye et al, 2003).…”
