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

Key message This review contains functional roles of MYB transcription factors in the
transcriptional regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis in horticultural plants. This review …

Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) is one of the popular fruits world‐wide, and its quality is mainly
determined by key metabolites (sugars, flavonoids, and vitamins). Previous works on …

Anthocyanins are visual cues for pollination and seed dispersal. Fruit containing
anthocyanins also appeals to consumers due to its appearance and health benefits. In …

Many Actinidia cultivars are characterized by anthocyanin accumulation, specifically in the
inner pericarp, but the underlying regulatory mechanism remains elusive. Here we report …

The anthocyanin synthetic pathway is regulated centrally by an MYB-bHLH-WD40 (MBW)
complex. Anthocyanin pigmentation is an important fruit quality trait in red-fleshed kiwifruit; …

To assess the interrelation between the change of metabolites and the change of fruit color,
we performed a combined metabolome and transcriptome analysis of the flesh in two …

Anthocyanins are a group of secondary metabolites that colour fruit and flowers orange, red,
purple or blue depending on a number of factors, such as the basic structure, co …

Purple foliage always appears in Camellia sinensis families; however, the transcriptional
regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis is unknown. The tea bud sport cultivar 'Zijuan'confers …

The groups of plant flavonoid metabolites termed anthocyanins and proanthocyanins (PA)
are responsible for pigmentation in seeds, flowers and fruits. Anthocyanins and PAs are …
