“…The MBW complex in Arabidopsis, composed of AtMYB123 (TT2), AtbHLH42 (TT8), and TTG1 proteins, was reported to activate the expression of DFR, LDOX, and ANR (BAN) genes, which lead to the accumulation of PAs in the seed coat [93,94]. A large number of homologs of TT2, TT8, and TTG1 have been identified in various plants, such as FaMYB9/11, FabHLH3, and FaTTG1 in strawberry [95], LjTT2a/2b/2c in Lotus japonicus [96], VvMYBPA2/PAR in Vitis vinifera [97], TaMYB14 in Trifolium arvense [98], TaMYB10-A1/-B1/-D1 in wheat [99], HvMYB10 in Hordeum vulgare [100], Tc-MYBPA in Theobroma cacao [101], MtMYB5/14 in M. truncatula [102], MdMYB9/11/12 in apple [27], PtMYB115 in poplar [34], CsMYB60 in cucumber [103,104], RrMYB10 in Rosa rugosa [31], AabHLH1 in Anthurium andraeanum [105], DkMYB2/4, DkMYC1, and DkWDR1 in persimmon [24,106,107], MtWD40-1 in M. truncatula [108], FhTTG1 in Freesia hybrida [109], and SlAN11 in tomato [110]. These factors are transcriptional activators of PAs biosynthetic pathways, suggesting that the MBW complexes are well conserved in higher plants [87,94].…”
