Reviewer 1 Report
In this study, the authors demonstrated that BcMYB111 acts as a positive regulator of flavonol thesis by in chinese cabbage, and propostd a model for BcMYB111 in regulating flavonoids metabolism in response to cold sterss.
Both the research methods and results were well descripted, and all the results were proved by enough experiments. I thought it has met the requirement of the journal International journal of molecular science.

Thank you for reviewing and commenting on this manuscript. We hope this article can provide assistance for the study of cold resistance in non heading Chinese cabbage. Thank you again and best regards.
Reviewer 2 Report
The result of the study is significant and leads to an obvious conclusion. But the article doesn't highlight why this study is important and how it contributes to the scientific world. A few lines can be added about how further research and invention can be done based on this research. The author can also add a few lines about how quercetin and kaempferol contribute to fighting cold stress.
One major concern about this article is the English language. In a few cases, it is not written in clear language and there are also grammatical mistakes. It is most visible in the introduction part which creates a very negative impact in the mind of the reader. English must be improved before publishing.
