Different maize (Zea mays L.) varieties have been used for thousands of years as a healthy food source in Mesoamerica including pigmented maize. Maize ingestion could contribute to the reduction in the rate of non-communicable diseases and, in turn, to its function as an adjuvant in their management. These diseases are mainly associated with oxidative stress, which is characterized by a redox cell imbalance produced due to pro-oxidant molecules accumulation, inducing irreversible damages. Although the endogenous antioxidant defense system is efficient, exogenous antioxidants are necessary to help to prevent this damage. Bioactive compounds, like anthocyanins, contained in dietary plants exert a major activity against oxidative stress. Could the maize anthocyanins play a curative, preventive or complementary role in the treatment of chronic diseases? Here, we describe the occurrence of anthocyanins from pigmented maize and their chemical structures. Furthermore, the biosynthesis, bioavailability, and stability are also summarized. Finally, many in vitro and in vivo studies of maize anthocyanins are discussed that demonstrated their nutraceutical potential, antioxidant capacity, and other biological effects. Given the importance of the biological properties of maize anthocyanins, it is necessary to understand the current knowledge and propose further research or clinical studies which allows us to better elucidate the biological mechanism of maize anthocyanins derivatives of several varieties and processes of cooking and combination with other ingredients to enhance their nutritional and health benefits.

Plants respond to phloem-feeding whiteflies by extensive changes in gene expression. To identify differentially expressed genes in husk tomato plants (Physalis philadelphica) infested with Trialeurodes vaporariorum, young plants were challenged with adult whiteflies, and forward and reverse subtractive libraries were constructed from infested leaves at 5 and 15 days after infestation. Several genes were identified as up-regulated; these included a diversity of genes involved in plant defense responses, protein synthesis or degradation, and cell wall fortification or modification. Genes required for amino acid biosynthesis, lipid metabolism and synthesis, including cell surface components such as suberin, responses to stress, photosynthesis and other functions, were similarly induced. Down-regulated genes were also identified, most prominently kinases and aquaporin genes. Similarities in defense responses between tomato and P. philadelphica were noted regarding the expression of certain genes in response to nematode, aphid, or whitefly. A role for abscisic acid, brassinosteroids, and cytokinins in the regulated response to whitefly infestation in P. philadelphica was also implied by the expression pattern of phytohormone-associated genes, including genes coding for proteins containing F-box motifs. Differential expression of selected genes was validated by quantitative real-time PCR. The possible role played by some of these genes during whitefly infestation is discussed.
