Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the anthocyanin-related genes during seed coat development in six Brassica species.

ABSTRACT: Yellow seed is one favorite trait for the breeding of Brassica oilseed crops, but the performance of seed coat color is very complicated due to the involvement of various pigments. The change of seed coat color of Brassica crops is related to the specific synthesis and accumulation of anthocyanin, and the expression level of structural genes in anthocyanin synthesis pathway is specifically regulated by transcription factors. Despite some previous reports on the regulations of seed coat color from linkage marker development, gene fine-mapping and multi-omics association analysis, the trait of Brassica crops is affected by the evolutionary events such as genome triploidization, the regulatory mechanism is still largely unknown. In this study, we identified genes related to anthocyanin synthe
