How pink is too pink: A tussle between plant and nature
1Department of Botany, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.
Abstract:
Everyone likes to add color to their life, and plants use them too. However, unlike humans, plants contain natural pigments to add color to fruits, leaves, and vegetables. Plants produce a variety of phytopigments, such as flavonoids, carotenoids, and anthocyanins, which play essential roles in plant stress tolerance. Leveraging natural phytopigments to develop stress-resilient crops will require an in-depth understanding of pigment formation and function. In this context, Zhang et al. (2023) studied the role of MYB6 and bHLH111 in enhancing anthocyanin biosynthesis in petals during drought.
