Anthocyanins play a variety of adaptive roles in both vegetative tissues and reproductive
organs of plants. The broad functionality of these compounds requires sophisticated …

Phenylpropanoids, the largest class of natural products including flavonoids, anthocyanins,
monolignols and tannins perform multiple functions ranging from photosynthesis, nutrient …

Pathogens hitting the plant cell wall is the first impetus that triggers the phenylpropanoid
pathway for plant defense. The phenylpropanoid pathway bifurcates into the production of …

The phenylpropanoid pathway gives rise to lignin, flavonoids, and other metabolites and is
regulated by MYB transcription factors. Many R2R3-MYB transcriptional activators are …

Flavonoids are major secondary metabolites derived from the plant phenylpropanoid
pathway that play important roles in plant development and also have benefits for human …

Phenylpropanoid-derived compounds represent a diverse family of secondary metabolites
that originate from phenylalanine. These compounds have roles in plant growth and …

Regulation of gene expression at the level of transcription controls many crucial biological
processes. Transcription factors (TFs) play a great role in controlling cellular processes and …

The secondary wall is the main part of wood and is composed of cellulose, xylan, lignin, and
small amounts of structural proteins and enzymes. Lignin molecules can interact directly or …

MYB transcription factors (TFs), as one of the largest gene families in plants, play important
roles in multiple biological processes, such as plant growth and development, cell …

Anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin (PA) accumulation is regulated by both myeloblastosis
(MYB) activators and repressors, but little information is available on hierarchical …
