Insights into long non-coding RNA regulation of anthocyanin carrot root pigmentation

Abstract Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is one of the most cultivated vegetable in the world and of great importance in the human diet. Its storage organs can accumulate large quantities of anthocyanins, metabolites that confer the purple pigmentation to carrot tissues and whose biosynthesis is well char...
