Leaf Color & Flavonoid Biosynthesis

A structured landing page for seasonal phenotype, anthocyanin and flavonoid pathways, candidate genes, expression dynamics, and epigenome integration.

Release status: the analysis framework is online; pathway artwork and matched seasonal measurements will be added only after source files, sample mapping, and citation information are verified.

Trait story

Awaiting matched images

Seasonal phenotype

Spring, summer, and autumn leaf images with species, tissue, date, treatment, and photographer attribution.

Awaiting pathway source

Flavonoid pathway

Curated biosynthetic steps, metabolites, directionality, enzyme names, and figure provenance.

Framework ready

Candidate genes

CHS, CHI, F3H, F3′H, DFR, ANS, UFGT, and MYB–bHLH–WD40 regulators.

Awaiting sample mapping

Expression dynamics

TPM/FPKM profiles by season and tissue with downloadable matrices and explicit sample IDs.

Awaiting locus mapping

Epigenome integration

ATAC-seq and WGBS changes around candidate loci, aligned to the same genome assembly.

Required for release

Download & citation

Pathway image, expression matrix, sample accessions, analysis version, and original references.

Data integration checklist

  1. Confirm biological scope. Record species, genotype, tissue, season, treatment, and replicate structure.
  2. Map identifiers. Match pathway genes to the exact MapleOmics assembly and transcript identifiers.
  3. Validate measurements. Check normalization, missing values, replicate consistency, and metabolite units.
  4. Release with provenance. Add accession, citation, figure legend, downloadable source table, and analysis date.
