Transcriptional control of flavonoid biosynthesis by MYB–bHLH–WDR complexes

TL;DR: Recent advances in the characterization of the underlying regulatory mechanisms of flavonoid biosynthesis are reviewed, with a special focus on the MBW (MYB-bHLH-WDR) protein complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Significance of antioxidant potential of plants and its relevance to therapeutic applications.

TL;DR: The physiology and redox biology of both plants and humans are reviewed to improve the understanding of plant antioxidants as therapeutic entities and the applications and limitations of antioxidant activity measurement assays were highlighted to identify the precise path to be followed for future research in the area of plant antioxidant research.

An R2R3 MYB transcription factor associated with regulation of the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway in Rosaceae

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used gene specific primers to show that the three activators of apple anthocyanin (myb10/myb1/myBA) are likely alleles of each other.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of developmental and environmental factors on secondary metabolites in medicinal plants.

TL;DR: The results of these reviews can know how developmental and environmental factors qualitatively and quantitatively influence SMs of medicinal plants and how these can be integrated as tools to quality control, as well as on the improvement of clinical curative effects by altering their genomes, and/or growth conditions.

The WRKY superfamily of plant transcription factors

TL;DR: The WRKY proteins are a superfamily of transcription factors with up to 100 representatives in Arabidopsis that appear to be involved in the regulation of various physio-logical programs that are unique to plants, including pathogen defense, senescence and trichome development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-Wide Analysis of the ERF Gene Family in Arabidopsis and Rice

TL;DR: It was concluded that the major functional diversification within the ERF family predated the monocot/dicot divergence and might have been due to chromosomal/segmental duplication and tandem duplication, as well as more ancient transposition and homing.
Journal ArticleDOI

A diverse and evolutionarily fluid set of microRNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: The results revealed the existence of a layer of miRNA-based control beyond that found previously that is evolutionarily much more fluid, employing many newly emergent and diverse miRNAs, each expressed in specialized tissues or at low levels under standard growth conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway by the TTG1/bHLH/Myb transcriptional complex in Arabidopsis seedlings.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that overexpression of Myb113 or Myb114 results in substantial increases in pigment production similar to those previously seen as a result of over-expression of PAP1, and pigment production in these overexpressors remains TTG1- and bHLH-dependent.
