| Abstract |
Yellow seeds are a favorable trait for Brassica crops breeding due to better quality than their black-seeded counterparts. Here, we compared the Brassica napus seed coat transcriptomes between yellow- and brown-seeded near-isogenic lines (Y-NIL and B-NIL) that were developed from the resynthesized yellow-seeded line No. 2127-17. A total of 4,974 differentially expressed genes (DEG) were identified during seed development, involving 3,128 up-regulated and 1,835 down-regulated genes in yellow seed coats. Phenylpropanoid and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways were enriched in down-regulated genes, whereas the top two pathways for up-regulated genes were plant-pathogen interaction and plant hormone signal transduction. Twelve biosynthetic genes and three regulatory genes involved in the flavonoid pathway exhibited similar expression patterns in seed coats during seed development, of which the down-regulation mainly contributed to the reduction of proanthocyanidins (PAs) in yellow seed coats, indicating that these genes associated with PA biosynthesis may be regulated by an unreported common regulator, possibly corresponding to the candidate for the dominant black-seeded gene D in the NILs. Three transcription factor (TF) genes, including one bHLH gene and two MYB-related genes that are located within the previous seed coat color quantitative trait locus (QTL) region on chromosome A09, also showed similar developmental expression patterns to the key PA biosynthetic genes and they might thus potentially involved participate in flavonoid biosynthesis regulation. Our study identified novel potential TFs involved in PAs accumulation and will provide pivotal information for identifying the candidate genes for seed coat color in B. napus. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 November 2017.
All research outputs
#14,083,124
of 23,005,189 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Plant Science
#7,369
of 20,502 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#172,139
of 322,951 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Plant Science
#202
of 486 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,005,189 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 20,502 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 322,951 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 486 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its contemporaries.
