Chieftain were studied by the measurement of fresh weight, spectrophotometric assays, and semiquantitative RT-PCR. The results indicate that 0.1 mmol·L^- 1 Ce （ Ⅳ ） can promote callus growth, increase the accumulation of anthocyanins, and enhance the expression of five anthocyanin biosynthetic genes （ CHS, F3H, F3＇5＇H, DFR, and 3 GT） most efficiently. At high concentrations of 1 mmol·L^- 1, Ce （Ⅳ） partially inhibits callus growth and at 2 mmol· L^-1 eventually lends to cell death. The results show that Ce（ Ⅳ ） can induce the expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes to produce and accumulate anthocyanins and increase the yield of anthocyanins.展开更多
