COP9 signalosome subunit 5A affects phenylpropanoid metabolism, trichome formation and transcription of key genes of a regulatory tri-protein complex in Arabidopsis

Abstract Background Trichomes and phenylpropanoid-derived phenolics are structural and chemical protection against many adverse conditions.Their production is regulated by a network that includes a TTG1/bHLH/MYB tri-protein complex in Arabidopsis.CSN5a, encoding COP9 signalosome subunit 5a, has also been implicated in trichome and anthocyanin produ
