Virus-induced silencing of MYB and WD40 transcription factor genes affects the accumulation of anthocyanins in chilli pepper fruit

Biologia Plantarum, 2014
The MYB, MYC, and WD40 transcription factors (TFs) are known to regulate the expression of structural biosynthetic genes at different steps depending on the plant species. In this work, we used an agroinfiltration protocol with Tobacco rattle virus (TRV)

Natural Variation of COLD and CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 Coordinately Fine‐Tunes Cold Tolerance and Tea Quality in Tea Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...

Isolation and expression analysis of NtCHS6, a new chalcone synthase gene from Nicotiana tabacum

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
Chalcone synthases (CHS, EC 2.3.1.74) are key enzymes that catalyze the first committed step in flavonoid biosynthesis. In this study, we isolated a chalcone synthase, named NtCHS6, from Nicotiana tabacum.
