Transcription-Associated Metabolomic Analysis Reveals the Mechanism of Fruit Ripening during the Development of Chinese Bayberry.

ABSTRACT: The ripening process of Chinese bayberries (Myrica rubra) is intricate, involving a multitude of molecular interactions. Here, we integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis across three developmental stages of the Myrica rubra (M. rubra) to elucidate these processes. A differential gene expression analysis categorized the genes into four distinct groups based on their expression patterns. Gene ontology and pathway analyses highlighted processes such as cellular and metabolic processes, including protein and sucrose metabolism. A metabolomic analysis revealed significant variations in metabolite profiles, underscoring the dynamic interplay between genes and metabolites during ripening. Flavonoid biosynthesis and starch and sucrose metabolism were identified as k
