Anthocyanin concentration depends on the counterbalance between its synthesis and degradation in plum fruit at high temperature

Abstract Anthocyanin synthesis and degradation processes were analyzed at transcript, enzyme, and metabolite levels to clarify the effects of high temperature on the concentration of anthocyanin in plum fruit (Prunus salicina Lindl.). The transcript levels of PsPAL, PsCHS, and PsDFR decreased while...
