Abstract: Transcriptional regulation is one of important steps regulating structure genes expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway in plants. During last ten years, regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis by activation or repression of transcription factor has become research emphasis of many botanist. Carry on the introduction to the process of anthocyanin biosynthesis and transportation, vacuolar deposition and sequestration, transcription factors and regulatory role, and application of transcriptional regulation to plant genetic improvement.
