The petal of Hibiscus mutabilis L. f. versicolor MAKINO shows a white color after the flowering, and it gradually changes in the red. Though it is reported that the color changes are due to the storage of the anthocyanin in the petal vacuole, the mechanism has not been clarified. Thus, the mechanism of the color change was elucidated by expression analysis of mRNA of anthocyanidin synthetase (ANS) in the petal. Extraction and purification of mRNA: petals of white, pink and red organization of freezed fresh H. mutabilis were crushed in the liquid nitrogen and total RNA was extracted using the CTAB method, followed by the refinement of each mRNA by Purification Kit (TaKaRa). The several kinds of primer of actin and ANS were designed from the homology with other plants respectively and then RT-PCR was done using these primers. On cDNA fragment amplified by RT-PCR, the base sequence was analyzed by the conventional mannner. Using the primer which efficiently amplified the cDNA fragment, the expression of mRNA of the ANS with the change of the flower color was examined by RT-PCR. The amplified fragment of about 600bps was assigned to that of actin and the amplified fragment of about 500bps expressed only in the deep red petal was assigned to that of the ANS of H. mutabilis, referring to the sequence of actin and the ANS respectively. The amino acid sequence of mRNA of actin of H. mutabilis showed a homology over 91% with those of the other type plant and that of the ANS showed a homology over 82%. The expression level of mRNA of the ANS was consistent with the increase in the deep red from the white color. Furthermore, the color change was dependent on temperature but not the light.
