Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) fruits are classified into dark-red and bicolored cultivars based on their anthocyanin contents; however, the mechanisms regulating the accumulation of these pigments are unclear. Here, we reveal that anthocyanin accumulation is highly dependent on light in bicolored 'Rainier' cherries, while it is only slightly light dependent in the dark-red 'Hongdeng' fruits. To reveal the transcriptional mechanisms regulating light-dependent anthocyanin accumulation in bicolored 'Rainier' cherries, we sequenced the transcriptomes of fruits grown in light or in darkness. Genes encoding the anthocyanin biosynthesis enzymes chalcone synthase, chalcone isomerase, flavanone 3-hydroxylase, and flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase were significantly upregulated by light in the bicolored fruits. Most of the differentially expressed regulatory genes were known to be involved in the light or hormone signal transduction pathways, such as those encoding protein phosphatase 2Cs, PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR 3, phytochromes, and ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5. The expression levels of 32 highly expressed transcription factors were found to be significantly altered by light in the bicolored fruits, including members of the basic leucine zipper, R2R3-MYB, and WRKY transcription factor families. A co-expression network analysis further revealed that many of the light-regulated genes were co-expressed with genes involved in the abscisic acid and gibberellic acid signaling pathways, suggesting that these phytohormones play important roles in light-dependent anthocyanin biosynthesis. Together, our data reveal multiple roles for light in regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis in differently colored cherries
