Lack of evidence for anthocyanins contributing to pigmentation of Chenopodium quinoa

Luna Theresa Lingemann, David Biley, Jakob Maximilian Horz, Najnin Khatun, Boas Pucker

The paper reanalyzes RNA-seq data from Zhang et al., 2024 to show no evidence of anthocyanin biosynthesis in Chenopodium quinoa, supporting betalain and carotenoid pigmentation instead.
