Fig. 3From: Infiltration-RNAseq: transcriptome profiling of Agrobacterium-mediated infiltration of transcription factors to discover gene function and expression networks in plantsThe core pathway for anthocyanin biosynthesis. The general phenylpropanoid pathway is catalysed by phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H) and 4-coumaroyl CoA ligase (4CL). Enzymes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis are chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone isomerase (CHI), flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H), flavanone 3′-hydroxylase (F3′H) and flavanone 3′5′-hydroxylase (F3′5′H), which produce dihydroflavanols: dihydrokaempferol (DHK), dihydroquercetin (DHQ) and dihydromyricetin (DHM), respectively. Anthocyanins are synthesized by dihydroflavanol 4-reductase (DFR) and anthocyanin synthase (ANS), and stabilised by 3-glucosyl-transferase (3GT), 3-rhamnosyl transferase (3RT), 5-glucosyl transferase (5GT) and anthocyanin acyl transferase (AT). Biosynthetic genes identified as being significantly differentially expressed (P value <0.05) are in blue; numbers in green are the fold change of expression observed for each differentially expressed gene between Control and LAP1 conditions (Additional file 1: Table S1); green upward arrow represents upregulation; Asterisk multiple isoforms of genes encoding these enzymes are upregulatedBack to article page
