Csrab, a r2r3-myb transcription factor from purple tea (camellia sinensis), positively regulates anthocyanin biosynthesis

HIGHLIGHTS

  • What: An RNA-seq analysis was conducted to compare the transcriptomes of the purple and green leaves of variety ‘Hongfei`, and an expressed sequence tag (EST) of a MYB gene ( the authors named it CsRAB)exhibiting a dramatic increase in the purple leaves was identified (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/PRJNA828330, PRJNA830308). There is no effective transformation system currently available for tea plants; therefore, the model plant Arabidopsis was used as a heterologous host to further analyze the functions of flavonoid metabolism-related genes.
  • Who: -MYB gene and colleagues from the Chinese Academy . . .
