Abstract Background Fruit coloration of red-skinned grapevines is mainly due to anthocyanin pigments. We analysed a panel of nine cultivars that included extreme phenotypes for berry colour ranging from green absence of anthocyanins to red purple violet and blue. Expression of six genes of the anthocyanin pathway coding for flavanone-hydroxylase F3H flavonoid 3 -hydroxylase F3 H flavonoid 3 5 -hydroxylase F3 5 H UDP-glucose flavonoid-3-0-glucosyltransferase UFGT glutathione-S-transferase GST O-methyltransferase OMT and four transcription factors MybA MybB MybC MybD was analysed by quantitative RT-PCR at four developmental stages from before the onset of ripening until full maturity and compared to anthocyanin metabolites. Results Total anthocyanin content at full maturity correlated well with the cumulative expression of F3H UFGT and GST .
