General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the expression of general flavonoid pathway genes from chalcone synthase (CHS) to uridine diphosphat-glucose:flavonoid 3-O-glycosyltransferase (UFGT) and flavonol synthase (FLS) increase in response to high C/N ratios in the growth media, and this in turn is correlated with the concentration of anthocyanins, flavones, and flavonols in the leaves and calli Malus sp.
