Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2008 Arabidopsis thaliana lacks the flavone biosynthetic pathway, probably because of a lack or low activity of a flavone synthase. To establish this biosynthetic pathway in Arabidopsis, we subjected this model plant to transformation with the parsley gene for flavone synthase type I (FNS-I).

Molecular Basis of Overdominance at a Flower Color Locus
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017 Single-gene overdominance is one of the major mechanisms proposed to explain heterosis (i.e., hybrid vigor), the phenomenon that hybrid offspring between two inbred lines or varieties show superior phenotypes to both parents.

Molecular Cloning and Biochemical Characterization of a Novel Cytochrome P450, Flavone Synthase II, that Catalyzes Direct Conversion of Flavanones to Flavones [PDF]
Plant and Cell Physiology, 1999 Cytochrome P450 cDNAs, AFNS2 and TFNS5, were isolated from snapdragon and torenia petal cDNA libraries, respectively, based on the sequence homology with licorice CYP93B1 cDNA encoding (2S)-flavanone 2-hydroxylase. They were expressed in yeast and identified to encode flavone synthase II catalyzing direct conversion of flavanones to flavones probably ...

Loss-of-Function Mutation of Soybean R2R3 MYB Transcription Factor Dilutes Tawny Pubescence Color
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Pubescence color of soybean is controlled by two genes, T and Td. In the presence of a dominant T allele, dominant and recessive alleles of the Td locus generate tawny and light tawny (or near-gray) pubescence, respectively.

Flavones: From Biosynthesis to Health Benefits
Plants, 2016 Flavones correspond to a flavonoid subgroup that is widely distributed in the plants, and which can be synthesized by different pathways, depending on whether they contain C- or O-glycosylation and hydroxylated B-ring.
