Phenylpropanoid metabolism is one of the most important metabolisms in plants, yielding
more than 8,000 metabolites contributing to plant development and plant–environment …

Phenylpropanoids are a large class of plant secondary metabolites derived from aromatic
amino acids phenylalanine in most plants or tyrosine in partial monocots. It mainly includes …

Flavonoids are widely known for the colors they confer to plant tissues, their contribution to
plant fitness and health benefits, and impact on food quality. As convenient biological …

Flavonoids are secondary metabolites derived from the general phenylpropanoid pathway
and are widespread throughout the plant kingdom. The functions of flavonoids are diverse …

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 MYB family of proteins is large, functionally diverse and represented in all eukaryotes.
Most MYB proteins function as transcription factors with varying numbers of MYB domain …

The expansion of gene families encoding regulatory proteins is typically associated with the
increase in complexity characteristic of multi‐cellular organisms. The MYB and basic helix …

Anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins are among the most numerous and widely distributed
pigments in land plants. Given that these pigments are the valuable compounds, as stress …

Strawberry (F ragaria× ananassa) fruits contain high concentrations of flavonoids. In unripe
strawberries, the flavonoids are mainly represented by proanthocyanidins (PA s), while in …

In A rabidopsis thaliana, proanthocyanidins (PA s) accumulate in the innermost cell layer of
the seed coat (ie endothelium, chalaza and micropyle). The expression of the biosynthetic …
