Nevertheless, the regulatory interplay between anthocyanin accumulation and tissue acidification processes remains somewhat unclear. The present study characterized an activator Rh MYB114 and a repressor Rh MYB16,which functioned synergistically in anthocyanin accumulation and tissue acidification in rose. Transforming tobacco and roses by overexpression, the introduction of Rh MYB114 resulted in an increase in anthocyanin levels and a noticeable decrease in p H in the petal cells of both rose and tobacco, whereas Rh MYB16 introduction led to inverse effects. To further clarify the underlying the regulatory mechanisms, the yeast two-hybrid(Y2H), bimolecular fluorescence complementation(Bi FC) and dual-luciferase(LUC) were employed. The results showed that Rh MYB16 competed with Rh MYB114, bound to Rhb HLH3 or Rhb HLH33, and inhibited its ability to induce the expression of genes related to anthocyanin biosynthesis and acidification. Our findings revealed a feedback mechanism for the regulation of anthocyanin synthesis and tissue acidification involving Rh MYB114, which stimulated the transcriptional expression of Rh MYB16, whose encoded protein Rh MYB16, in turn, negatively regulated the transcriptional expression of Rh MYB114. Therefore, this study underscores the pivotal roles of the Rh MYB114-Rh MYB16 loop in regulating anthocyanin synthesis and tissue acidification, offering insights into metabolic manipulation to enhance the aesthetic appeal of roses.展开更多
