Abstract excerpt
Anthocyanins are secondary metabolites in land plants that contribute to the colors of leaves and flowers, and are nutritionally valuable components of the human diet. The DFR gene plays an important role in the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway. In this study, we investigated the regulation of DFR expression and in different Malus crabapple cultivars that show distinct patterns of leaf coloration, and how it...
