The expression analysis of betalain biosynthetic genes at 5 developmental stages of bract (from left to right was bract 0.5, bract 1.0, bract 2.0, bract 2.5, bract 3.5). The color from white to red indicated the expression level from low to high. The schematic diagram of betalain biosynthetic pathway was edited according to KEGG and reported reference[25]. “*” steads of spontaneous chemical reaction steps. The yellow borders represent the product of betaxanthin and the red borders represent the product of betacyanin. DODA: 4,5-DOPA-extradiol-dioxygenase; B6GT: Betalain 6-O-glucosyltransferase; B5GT: betanidin 5-O-glucosyltransferase; cDOPA5GT: Cyclo-DOPA 5-O-glucosyltransferase; COMT: Catechol O-methyltransferase; DDC: DOPA decarboxylase
