Genome-wide analysis of the R2R3-MYB family in Perilla frutescens and the regulatory model of the PfMYB33-PfbHLH11 complex in Anthocyanin biosynthesis.
A metabolic profile of anthocyanin accumulation in P. frutescens leaves is constructed and a novel regulatory model wherein the PfMYB33-PfbHLH11 complex coordinates downstream structural genes is proposed, providing valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms governing leaf coloration in P. frutescens.
