Title: A Skin Color Mutation of Grapevine, from Black-Skinned Pinot Noir to White-Skinned Pinot Blanc, Is Caused by Deletion of the FunctionalVvmybA1Allele Authors: Hiroshi Yakushiji; Shozo Kobayashi; Nami Goto‐Yamamoto; Soek TAE JEONG; Tamotsu Sueta; Nobuhito Mitani; Akifumi Azuma Venue: Bioscience Biotechnology and Biochemistry Year: 2006 Canonical: doi:10.1271/bbb.50647 URL: https://doi.org/10.1271/bbb.50647 Collector: openalex OA: false ABSTRACT A white-wine grape, Pinot Blanc, is thought to be a white-skinned mutant of a red-wine grape, Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir was heterozygous for VvmybA1. One allele was the non-functional VvmybA1a, and the other was the functional VvmybA1c. In Pinot Blanc, however, only VvmybA1a was observed, and the amount of VvmybA1 DNA in Pinot Blanc was half that in Pinot Noir. These findings suggest that deletion of VvmybA1c from Pinot Noir resulted in Pinot Blanc.
