Expression analysis of flavonoid biosynthesis genes during <it>Arabidopsis thaliana </it>silique and seed development with a primary focus on the proanthocyanidin biosynthetic pathway

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The coordinated activity of different flavonoid biosynthesis genes in <it>Arabidopsis thaliana </it>results in tissue-specific accumulation of flavonols, anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins (PAs). These compounds possess d...
