SUMMARY Flavonoids are major secondary metabolites derived from the plant phenylpropanoid pathway that play important roles in plant development and also have benefits for human health. So‐called MBW ternary complexes involving R2R3‐MYB and basic helix‐loop‐helix (bHLH) transcription factors along w...
