It also has a vital role on plant growth and development, nutrient absorption and biosynthesis, signaltransduction, etc. In the flesh, leaves and exocarp,CsMYC2expression was associated withCHS,UFGTandANSexpression. Therefore,CsMYC2involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis and regulation. It is not clear what the geneplays a role of anthocyanin synthesis regulation in Yunnan red-skin pear. This research investigated thebHLHgeneof Yunnan red-skin pears by using bioinformatic method and software. The homology of amino acid sequences ofthe bHLHamong different plants pared and the physical and chemical properties, structure and function ofthe gene encoding protein were predicted and analyzed. The result showed that
