Abstract
Disposing efficiently and safely chlorophyll derivatives during senescence requires a coordinated pathway that is well conserved throughout green plants. The PAO/phyllobilin pathway catalyzes the degradation of the chlorophyll during senescence and allows detoxification of the pigment and its subsequent export from the chloroplast. Although most of the chloroplastic reactions involved in chlorophyll degradation are well understood, the diversity of enzymes responsible for downstream modifications of non-phototoxic phyllobilins remains to be explored. More than 40 phyllobilins have been described to date, but only three enzymes catalyzing side-chain reactions have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana, namely, TIC55, CYP89A9, and MES16. Here, by generating a triple mutant, we evaluate the extent to which these enzymes are influencing the rate and amplitude of chlorophyll degradation at the metabolite as well as its regulation at the transcriptome level. Our data show that major side-chain modifications of phyllobilins do not influence significantly chlorophyll degradation or leaf senescence, letting the physiological relevance of their striking diversity an open question.

Abstract
Bananas are known to contain fiber and vitamins essential for human body. Thus, the ability to detect these of vitamin in bananas is crucial. Information in the vitamin content of can affect procedures for harverst and post-harvest process. Methods to determine the nutrition content of foods are usually carried out using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). However, this method requires complex sample preparation and chemical reaction processes. Due to this weakness, alternative techniques are needed to detect vitamin in simple ways. In this study, a simple, easy and fast methods to determine the vitamin content of banana was developed. Using reflectance and photoluminence spectroscopy, the vitamin of bananas from five different species were able to be identified. From the reflectance spectra results, two peaks were observed, the first peak at a wavelength of 325 nm is the absorption peak of vitamin B6 and the second peak at 450 nm is the absorption peak of vitamin B12. From the photoluminence spectra using excitation wavelength at 325 nm, an emission peak was found at wavelength 450 nm which is the peak emission from vitamin B6. These results proved that by using the methods proposed, the detection of vitamins in bananas can be done in an easy and simple ways.

Abstract
The fate of the green plant pigment chlorophyll (Chl) in de-greening leaves has long been a fascinating biological puzzle. In the course of the last three decades, various bilin-type products of Chl breakdown have been identified, named phyllobilins (PBs). Considered 'mere' leftovers of a controlled biological Chl detoxification originally, the quest for finding relevant bioactivities of the PBs has become a new paradigm. Indeed, the PBs are abundant in senescent leaves, in ripe fruit and in some vegetables, and they display an exciting array of diverse heterocyclic structures. This review outlines briefly which types of Chl breakdown products occur in higher plants, describes basics of their bio-relevant structural and chemical properties and gives suggestions as to 'why' the plants produce vast amounts of uniquely 'decorated' heterocyclic compounds. Clearly, it is worthwhile to consider crucial metabolic roles of PBs in plants, which may have practical consequences in agriculture and horticulture. However, PBs are also part of our plant-based nutrition and their physiological and pharmacological effects in humans are of interest, as well.

Abstract
Banana fruits are firstly green due to chlorophyll, then yellow due to carotenoids and finally turn black due to polyphenols. However, bananas glow blue when observed under UV light. It has been reported that chlorophylls fade to give rise to fluorescent chlorophyll catabolites (FCCs) in senescent banana leaves and in ripening banana peels. FCCs are short lived catabolic intermediates that ultimately lead to non-fluorescent chlorophyll catabolites (NCCs). FCCs are abundant in bananas due to hypermodification; therefore, it was concluded that FCC caused yellow bananas to glow blue. Experiments were performed in order to shed new light into the autofluorescence phenomenon. Microscopy performed on living plant samples contradict the interpretation that the fluorescent blue glow is mainly caused by FCC inside the cell. Blue fluorescence in banana emerges from the cell wall, not from the symplasm. It is not primarily caused by soluble chlorophyll catabolites in the vacuoles or senescing plastids. Insoluble phenolics from the apoplast make bananas shine strongly blue under black light. Chlorophyll is a light trap that generates black holes of blue fluorescence, and therefore cells with chloroplasts glow less blue. The white pulp of banana fruits shine more strongly than the outer peel. In both tissues autofluorescence arises from insoluble phenols that are estherified to the cell wall. In monocot species (banana, maize, sugarcanne), blue fluorescense was strongest in the cell wall, whereas in dicots (e.g. arabidopsis, spearmint, hibiscus), blue fluorescence may be dominant from cytosolic, vacuolar or plastidial compartments.

Abstract
Banana (Musa AAA group) is one of the most consumed fruits in the world due to its flavor and nutritional value. As a typical climacteric fruit, banana responds to ethylene treatment, which induces rapid changes of color, flavor (aroma and taste), sweetness and nutritional composition. It has also been reported that ripening bananas at temperatures above 24 °C inhibits chlorophyll breakdown and color formation but increases the rate of senescence. To gain fundamental knowledge about the effects of high temperature and ethylene on banana ripening, a quantitative proteomic study employing multiplex peptide stable isotope dimethyl labeling was conducted. In this study, green (immature) untreated banana fruit were subjected to treatment with 10 μL L(-1) of ethylene for 24 h. After ethylene treatment, treated and untreated fruit were stored at 20 or 30 °C for 24 h. Fruit peel tissues were then sampled after 0 and 1 day of storage, and peel color and chlorophyll fluorescence were evaluated. Quantitative proteomic analysis was conducted on the fruit peels after 1 day of storage. In total, 413 common proteins were identified and quantified from two biological replicates. Among these proteins, 91 changed significantly in response to ethylene and high-temperature treatments. Cluster analysis on these 91 proteins identified 7 groups of changed proteins. Ethylene treatment and storage at 20 °C induced 40 proteins that are correlated with pathogen resistance, cell wall metabolism, ethylene biosynthesis, allergens and ribosomal proteins, and it repressed 36 proteins that are associated with fatty acid and lipid metabolism, redox-oxidative responses, and protein biosynthesis and modification. Ethylene treatment and storage at 30 °C induced 32 proteins, which were mainly similar to those in group 1 but also included 8 proteins in group 3 (identified as chitinase, cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase 1, cysteine synthase, villin-2, leucine-transfer RNA ligase, CP47 protein and calmodulin) and repressed 43 proteins in 4 groups (groups 4-7), of which 6 were associated with photosynthesis II oxygen-evolving protein, the photosynthesis I reaction center, sugar metabolism, the redox-oxidative system and fatty acid metabolism. Differences in the response to ethylene and holding temperature at 30 °C were also revealed and have been discussed. The identities and quantities of the proteins found were linked with quality changes. This study demonstrates that ethylene and high temperature influence banana fruit ripening and senescence at the proteomic level and reveals the mechanisms by which high temperature accelerates banana fruit ripening.

Abstract
Chlorophyll breakdown is a visual phenomenon of leaf senescence and fruit ripening. It leads to the formation of colorless chlorophyll catabolites, a group of (chlorophyll-derived bilin-type) linear tetrapyrroles. Here, analysis and structure elucidation of the chlorophyll breakdown products in leaves of banana (Musa acuminata) is reported. In senescent leaves of this monocot all chlorophyll catabolites identified were hypermodified fluorescent chlorophyll catabolites (hmFCCs). Surprisingly, nonfluorescent chlorophyll catabolites (NCCs) were not found, the often abundant and apparently typical final chlorophyll breakdown products in senescent leaves. As a rule, FCCs exist only fleetingly, and they isomerize rapidly to NCCs in the senescent plant cell. Amazingly, in the leaves of banana plants, persistent hmFCCs were identified that accounted for about 80 % of the chlorophyll broken down, and yellow leaves of M. acuminata display a strong blue luminescence. The structures of eight hmFCCs from banana leaves were analyzed by spectroscopic means. The massive accumulation of the hmFCCs in banana leaves, and their functional group characteristics, indicate a chlorophyll breakdown path, the downstream transformations of which are entirely reprogrammed towards the generation of persistent and blue fluorescent FCCs. As expressed earlier in related studies, the present findings call for attention, as to still elusive biological roles of these linear tetrapyrroles.

Abstract
The disappearance of chlorophyll is a visual sign of fruit ripening. Yet, chlorophyll breakdown in fruit has hardly been explored; its non-green degradation products are largely unknown. Here we report the analysis and structure elucidation of colorless tetrapyrrolic chlorophyll breakdown products in commercially available, ripening bananas (Musa acuminata, Cavendish cultivar). In banana peels, chlorophyll catabolites were found in an unprecedented structural richness: a variety of new fluorescent chlorophyll catabolites (FCCs) and nonfluorescent chlorophyll catabolites (NCCs) were detected. As a rule, FCCs exist only "fleetingly" and are hard to observe. However, in bananas several of the FCCs (named Mc-FCCs) were persistent and carried an ester function at the propionate side-chain. NCCs were less abundant, and exhibited a free propionic acid group, but functional modifications elsewhere. The modifications of NCCs in banana peels were similar to those found in NCCs from senescent leaves. They are presumed to be introduced by enzymatic transformations at the stage of the mostly unobserved, direct FCC-precursors. The observed divergent functional group characteristics of the Mc-FCCs versus those of the Mc-NCCs indicated two major "late" processing lines of chlorophyll breakdown in ripening bananas. The "last common precursor" at the branching point to either the persistent FCCs, or towards the NCCs, was identified as a temporarily abundant "secondary" FCC. The existence of two "downstream" branches of chlorophyll breakdown in banana peels, and the striking accumulation of persistent Mc-FCCs call for attention as to the still-elusive biological roles of the resulting colorless linear tetrapyrroles.
