The main oxidative reactions are enzymatic browning. They involve two oxidoreductases enzymes: polyphenoloxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD). PPO catalyzes two reactions; the first, a hydroxylation of monophenols to diphenols, which is relatively slow and results in colourless products. The second, the oxidation of diphenols to quinines, is rapid and gives coloured products

Thank you everybody! Chemical analysis revealed 0 amount of Boron, and low - Mg, probably both caused by high concentration of soluble Ca in soil (over 6 g/kg) and acidic pH (4.5-5). It looks like the symptoms are caused by this factors. The question is - how we can make plants accumulate Boron despite high Ca and low pH?
