Putative flavonoids biosynthesis pathway in E. konishiii. (a) Pathway for flavonoids biosynthesis. The numbers in brackets following each gene name indicate the number of E. konishiii unigenes corresponding to that gene. Enzyme abbreviations are as follows: PAL, phenylalanine ammonia lyase; C4H, cinnamate 4-hydroxylase; 4CL, 4-coumarate CoA ligase; HCT, shikimate O-hydroxycinnamoyltransferase; C3’H, coumaroylquinate 3′-monooxygenase; CCoAMT, caffeoyl-CoA O-methyltransferase; CHS, chalcone synthase; CHI, chalcone isomerase; F3H, flavanone 3-hydroxylase; F3’H, flavonoid 3′-hydroxylase; F3’5’H, flavonoid 3′,5′-hydroxylase; FLS, flavonolsynthese; DFR, dihydroflavonol 4-reductase; ANR, anthocyanidinreductase; ANS, leucoanthocyanidin dioxygenase; LAR, leucoanthocyanidin reductase. (b) Expression levels of candidate E. konishiii unigenes coding for key enzymes involved in flavonoids biosynthesis pathways. Green and red colors are used to represent low-to-high expression levels, and color scales correspond to the mean centered log2-transformed FPKM values
