  • High pigment golden beets
    Patent number: 8198512
    Abstract: A method for the creation of high pigment yellow or golden beets is described. High pigment yellow beets have enhanced levels of betaxanthins while limiting the abundance of betacyanins so that the beets themselves are yellow. The beets are useful as a table food having enhanced nutritional value because of the enhanced pigment concentration and also as a source of pigment itself.
