1 CRY1 was originally defined as the photoreceptor responsible for blue-light-mediated inhibition of hypocotyl elongation and we now report that anthocyanin accumulation in germinating seedlings is an additional phenotype under the control of this photoreceptor--this is shown to be mediated in part by modulation of mRNA levels of chalcone synthase, one of the anthocyanin biosynthetic enzymes. Anthocyanins cryptochrome 1 Arabidopsis thaliana
