Gene ID	Name	Evidence / Role	Function (this paper)
Mp5g19050	MpR2R3-MYB14	experimental subject	R2R3-MYB transcription factor (Mapoly0073s0038); activates flavonoid (auronidin/anthocyanin-like) production in response to abiotic stress. Overexpression induces CHS/CHI; shows R2R3-MYB flavonoid control is an ancient land-plant character.
Mp3g07510	MpMYB02	sequence comparator	R2R3-MYB family member (comparison).
Mp6g11010	MpACTIN7	experimental tool	Actin; qPCR reference.
Mp6g05290	MpCHI	experimental background	Chalcone isomerase; flavonoid-pathway gene.
Mp2g07060	MpCHS1	experimental background	Chalcone synthase (Mapoly0021s0159); MpMyb14-activated flavonoid gene.
