Other claims from this paper (4)
- Association Candidate genes not previously associated with anthocyanin variation in potatoes were identified: a Myb transcription factor, a leucoanthocyanidin dioxygenase gene and a vacuolar membrane protein.
- Association Some SNPs were associated with multiple anthocyanin compounds, which may reflect pleiotropic genes or anthocyanin biosynthetic clusters.
- Association A SNP linked to the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase gene was associated with all five anthocyanins measured.
- Association Methionine metabolism, sugar production and hydroxycinnamic acid production are genetically correlated with anthocyanin biosynthesis.
