Abstract
This review discusses all identified betalains from plant sources with relevant chemical information for easy reference. Annual production potential of betalains from plant sources has been computed first time in this review. Betalain and anthocyanin-accumulating families under Caryophyllales have been separately compiled. In addition, a comprehensive pathway for betalain biosynthesis is illustrated vis-a-vis their regulation.
