    • The Coordinated Action of MYB Activators and Repressors Controls Proanthocyanidin and Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Vaccinium 

      Lafferty, Declan J.; Espley, Richard V.; Deng, Cecilia H; Dare, Andrew P.; Günther, Catrin S.; Jaakola, Laura; Karppinen, Katja; Boase, Murray R.; Wang, Lei; Luo, Henry; Allan, Andrew C.; Albert, Nick W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-24)
      Vaccinium berries are regarded as “superfoods” owing to their high concentrations of anthocyanins, flavonoid metabolites that provide pigmentation and positively affect human health. Anthocyanin localization differs between the fruit of cultivated highbush blueberry (V. corymbosum) and wild bilberry (V. myrtillus), with the latter having deep red flesh coloration. Analysis of comparative ...

    • MYBA and MYBPA transcription factors co-regulate anthocyanin biosynthesis in blue-coloured berries 

      Karppinen, Katja; Lafferty, Declan J.; Albert, Nick W.; Mikkola, Nelli; McGhie, Tony K.; Allan, Andrew C.; Afzal, Bilal M.; Häggman, Hely; Espley, Richard V.; Jaakola, Laura (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-05)
      <p>We used blue berries of bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) to comprehensively characterise flavonoid-regulating R2R3 MYBs, which revealed a new type of co-regulation in anthocyanin biosynthesis between members of MYBA-, MYBPA1- and MYBPA2-subgroups. <p>VmMYBA1, VmMYBPA1.1 and VmMYBPA2.2 expression was elevated at berry ripening and by abscisic acid treatment. Additionally, VmMYBA1 and VmMYBPA1.1 ...
