MYB pathways that regulate UV-B-induced anthocyanin biosynthesis in blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum).

ABSTRACT: Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) promotes anthocyanin accumulation and improves fruit quality in plants. To explore the underlying network of MYB transcription factors that regulates UV-B-induced anthocyanin biosynthesis in blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum), we analyzed the response of MYB transcription factor genes to UV-B treatment. Transcriptome sequencing analysis revealed that VcMYBA2 and VcMYB114 expression were upregulated and were positively correlated with the expression of anthocyanin structural genes under UV-B radiation according to weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) data. The VcUVR8-VcCOP1-VcHY5 pathway perceives UV-B signals and promotes the expression of anthocyanin structural genes by upregulating VcMYBA2 and VcMYB114 or by reg
