5.5.1.6 additional information Allium cepa presence of a premature stop codon in the gold CHI gene results in an inactive chalcone isomerase. Inactivation of chalcone isomerase results in a block in the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway and the accumulation of chalcone derivatives, including a yellow pigment which might be responsible for the unusual gold color in onion ?
