Apigeninidin[2] (Gesneridin) is a chemical compound belonging to the 3-deoxyanthocyanidins and that can be found in the Patagonian plant Ephedra frustillata[3] and in the soybean.[4] Apigeninidin is one of the principal pigments found in sorghum.[5] Extremely high level of apigeninidin (49 mg/g) has been documented in sorghum leaf sheath.[6]

Projects in Burkina Faso have been led in 1994 to use a red desoxy-3-anthocyanin pigment identified as apigenindin from Sorghum in the dyeing industry.[7]
