- Grapevine under deficit irrigation: hints from physiological and molecular data. (2010, background): “Anthocyanins are synthesized via the flavonoid pathway in the berry skin of red grapevines from the onset of ripening (véraison) but they are non-existent in white grapevine varieties due to a multi-allelic mutation (Walker et al., 2007).”
- Recent advances on the regulation of anthocyanin synthesis in reproductive organs. (2011, background): “These genes are inactive in some white rape cultivars due to a retrotransposon insertion in the promoter egion of VvMYBA1 [64] and nonconservative substitutions in the oding region of VvMYBA2 [65].”
