Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS7D02G166500.1
• Gene Symbol: TaPpm1a
• Gene Name: purple pericarp-MYB 1
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• Two transcription factors TaPpm1 and TaPpb1 co-regulate anthocyanin biosynthesis in purple pericarps of wheat.
• Three non-functional variants were detected in the coding sequence of TaPpm1 from non-purple seed lines, in which the function of TaPpm1 was destroyed either by insertion-induced frame shifts or truncated peptides.
• We were able to demonstrate that the interaction of TaPpm1 and TaPpb1 co-regulates the synthesis of anthocyanin.
• These results indicated that TaPpm1 and TaPpb1 are complementary genes that control downstream genes and subsequent purple pigment synthesis in wheat grains.
• TaPpm1 and TaPpb1 collaboratively regulate the purple pericarp phenotype of wheat.
