Overexpression of the kiwifruit SVP3 gene affects reproductive development and suppresses anthocyanin biosynthesis in petals, but has no effect on vegetative growth, dormancy, or flowering time

Overexpression of SVP3 affects kiwifruit flower and fruit development. The reduced petal pigmentation results from interference with transcription of the kiwifruit flower tissue-specific R2R3 MYB regulator.
