Note The functions of the transcription factors have been confirmed (or indicated) by genetic mutant or plant transgenic studies. They are activators of transcription unless stated otherwise. Some are direct activators of the flavonoid biosynthetic genes, while others may encode factors upstream in a regulatory cascade.

Successful transgenic studies have generated mice that produce milk with 33% more total solids (40-50% TS) and 17% less lactose than normal mouse milk. As the increase in the total solids is associated with a decrease in total milk volume, the net result is the same quantity of fat and protein being produced in a lesser total milk volume. If this technology could be extrapolated in dairy animals, milk that contains...
