Project description:Our study demonstrated the fluctuation of flavonoid biosynthesis in the two pomelo cultivars and laid a theoretical foundation for pomelo breeding to generate fruits with high flavonoid content.
Project description:Jinggangshan honey pomelo, branded with "Jinggangshan," is a specialty fruit, but yellow spot disease severely affects its yield and quality. This study employed an integrated analysis of metabolomics and transcriptomics to investigate key differential metabolites (DAMs) and differentially expressed genes(DEGs) in two pomelo varieties, Jinlan (af) and Jinsha (js).
Project description:The Jinggang honey pomelo is recognized as one of the three major fruit industry brands in Jiangxi Province. However, the crop’s growth and yield have been significantly affected by the black spot disease caused by Diaporthe citri. Despite this impact, the defense mechanisms and underlying molecular responses of the Jinggang honey pomelo to the disease remain poorly understood.
