摘要
This study was carried out to better understand the mechanism responsible for increasing the anthocyanins in blueberries after UV-B radiation at 6.0 kJ m-2 for 20 min. UV-B induced upregulation of genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis in blueberry fruit compared to a nontreated control. Phenylalanine ammonia lyase, chalcone synthase, and flavanone 3'-hydroxylase, which are enzymes that function upstream of anthocyanin biosynthesis, were significantly expressed by UV-B. Expression levels of VcBBX, VcMYB21, and VcR2R3MYB transcription factors (TFs) were upregulated by UV-B in the same manner as the anthocyanin biosynthesis genes. The significant increase in the expression of TFs occurred immediately after UV-B treatment and was then maximized within 3 h. In accordance with these changes, individual anthocyanin contents in the fruits treated with UV-B significantly increased within 6 h and were 2-3-fold higher than the control. Our results indicated that UV-B radiation stimulates an increase in anthocyanin biosynthesis, which could be upregulated by the TFs studied.
