Phenotype of Arabidopsis plants after high light stress and the potential function step of citrus Cs-UGT78D3 in anthocyanins biosynthesis pathway (a) 25 days old wild type (WT) and overexpressed (OX) Arabidopsis plants (b) After 14 days of high light stress WT and OX plants (c) HLS effects on empty vector (EV) lines (d) Assumed functional step of citrus UDP-GLUCOSYL TRANSFERASE gene (Cs5g24820) (Metabolic pathway has been made from KEGG www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway; TAIR https://www.arabidopsis.org/and [19]). Student’s t-test was used to compare 78D3-OE and WT, p < 0.05 (*) Significant; p < 0.01 (**) Highly significant. TT3 or DFR: Dihydroflavonol 4-reductase; TT8, TT9: Transparent Testa 8, 9; ANS: anthocyanidin synthase; BAN: Banyuls; TT9 and TTG2: triggers the accumulation of brown colored proanthocyanidins; GL3: TT8 and GL3 are basic helix-loop-helix (bHLHs) transcription factors that influence anthocyanin accumulation
