MYB factors represent a family of proteins that include the conserved MYB DNA-binding
domain. In contrast to animals, plants contain a MYB-protein subfamily that is characterised …

The origin of agriculture led to the domestication of many plant species and to the
exploitation of natural resources. It took almost 10,000 years for food grain production to …

Flavonoids are major polyphenol compounds in plant secondary metabolism. Wild red‐
fleshed apples (Malus sieversii f. niedzwetzkyana) are an excellent resource because of …

Despite the recognition of H2O2 as a central signaling molecule in stress and wounding
responses, pathogen defense, and regulation of cell cycle and cell death, little is known …

Abstract The AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR (ARF) gene family products, together with the
AUXIN/INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID proteins, regulate auxin-mediated transcriptional …

Class III plant peroxidase (POX), a plant-specific oxidoreductase, is one of the many types of
peroxidases that are widely distributed in animals, plants and microorganisms. POXs exist …

An Arabidopsis thaliana line that is mutant for the R2R3 MYB gene, AtMYB4, shows
enhanced levels of sinapate esters in its leaves. The mutant line is more tolerant of UV-B …

The human population is increasing at an alarming rate, whereas at the same time
agricultural productivity is decreasing due to the effect of various environmental problems. In …

Comprehensive functional data on plant R2R3-MYB transcription factors is still scarce
compared to the manifold of their occurrence. Here, we identified the Arabidopsis …

In Arabidopsis, proanthocyanidins specifically accumulate in the endothelium during early
seed development. At least three TRANSPARENT TESTA (TT) genes, TT2, TT8, and TTG1 …
