The usual red color of young leaves of peach (Prunus persicaf.atropurpurea) is due to the accumulation of anthocyanin. Real-time PCR analysis revealed a strong correlation between the expression levels of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes and anthocyanin content in leaves at different developmental stages. The expression profiles of both anthocyanin biosynthetic genes and photorespiratory genes showed significant changes in leaves held in the dark or exposed to heat stress, compared with controls. The expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes dramatically decreased in peach red leaves following dark or heat treatments, resulting in a significant decrease of anthocyanin accumulation. However, the photorespiration-related genesGDCHandGOXexhibited increased expression in peach leaves after dark or heat treatment. Moreover, the expression levels ofGDCHandGOXin theArabidopsis chi/f3′hmutant that does not accumulate anthocyanins were higher than in the wild type. Overall, these results support the hypothesis that photorespiration-related genes might be involved in the regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis. This finding provides a new insight into our understanding of the mechanism underlying the control of anthocyanin biosynthesis in plants.
