Isolation And Characterization Of Key Genes That Promote Flavonoid Accumulation In Purple-Leaf Tea (Camellia sinensis L.)

X. He, X. Zhao, L. Gao…·Y. Wang

The paper identifies and characterizes two genes, CsMYB6A and CsUGT72AM1, that promote flavonoid accumulation in purple-leaf tea, with CsMYB6A activating structural genes and CsUGT72AM1 catalyzing flavonol glycosylation.
