Abstract Background Genome structural variations (SVs) have been associated with key traits in a wide range of agronomically important species; however, SV profiles peach and their functional impacts remain largely unexplored. Results Here, we present an integrated map 202,273 SVs from 336 genomes. A substantial number selected during domestication improvement, which together affect 2268 genes. Genome-wide association studies 26 agronomic using these identify candidate causal variants. 9-bp...
Abstract Background Plant metabolites reshaped by nature and human beings are crucial for both their lives health. However, which respond most strongly to selection pressure at different evolutionary stages what roles they undertake on perennial fruit crops such as peach remain unclear. Results Here, we report 18,052 significant locus-trait associations, 12,691 expression-metabolite correlations, 294,676 expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) peach. Our results indicate that amino acids...
SUMMARY Peach ( Prunus persica L. Batsch) is an economically important fruit crop worldwide. Although a high‐quality peach genome has previously been published, Sanger sequencing was used for its assembly, which generated short contigs. Here, we report chromosome‐level assembly and sequence analysis of Chinese Cling, founder cultivar breeding programs The assembled contained 247.33 Mb with contig N50 4.13 scaffold 29.68 Mb, representing 99.8% the estimated genome. Comparisons between this...
Abstract Background Peach ( Prunus persica) is an economically important stone fruit crop in Rosaceae and widely cultivated temperate subtropical regions, emerging as excellent material to study the interaction between plant environment. During its genus, there are four wild species of peach, all living harsh environments. For example, one species, P. mira , originates from Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) exhibits strong cold/ultraviolet ray environmental adaptations. Although remarkable...
Grain formation is fundamental for crop yield but vulnerable to abiotic and biotic stresses. Rice grain production threatened by the false smut fungus Ustilaginoidea virens, which specifically infects rice floral organs, disrupting fertilization seed formation. However, little known about molecular mechanisms of U. virens–rice interaction genetic basis resistance. Here, we report that virens secretes a cytoplasmic effector, UvCBP1, facilitate infection flowers. Mechanistically, UvCBP1...
Abstract Bud dormancy is crucial for winter survival and characterized by the inability of bud meristem to respond growth-promotive signals before chilling requirement (CR) met. However, our understanding genetic mechanism regulating CR remains limited. This study identified PpDAM6 (DORMANCY-ASSOCIATED MADS-box) as a key gene using genome-wide association analysis based on structural variations in 345 peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) accessions. The function regulation was demonstrated...
Lemon is a healthy fruit with high medicinal value.
The tumor microenvironment, especially the extracellular matrix (ECM), is strongly associated with cell proliferation and metastasis. Numerous studies have provided evidence suggesting that fibronectin (FN) in ECM supports cancer escape contributes to migration, resulting distant metastasis poor outcomes patients. In our study, it was demonstrated FN expression elevated tissues from highly malignant NSCLC patients, compared those low malignancy (p = 0.0076). Importantly, promoted...
Abstract Sugar content is a key determinant of peach (Prunus persica) fruit quality, influencing taste, consumer preferences, and market value. However, the roles Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) transporters in sugar metabolism regulation remain largely unexplored. This study employed combination spatial metabolomics, quantitative genetics, transcriptomics, comparative genomics, functional genomics to investigate role 67 MFS members balancing during development. Spatial metabolomics...
Abstract Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) has been emerged as an effective method to explore the gene function and regulatory mechanisms. However, selecting appropriate reference (s) is a prerequisite for obtaining accurate qRT-PCR results. Peach one of important fruit in Rosaceae widely cultivated worldwide. In this study, reliable peach with different types during ripening softening (S1–S4), nine candidate genes ( EF-1α , GAPDH TBP UBC eIF-4α TUB-A TUB-B ACTIN HIS ) were selected from...
Wild pest-resistant germplasms employ secondary metabolites to withstand insect attacks. A close wild relative of the cultivated peach, Prunus davidiana, displays strong resistance green peach aphids by utilizing cope with aphid infestation; however, underlying mechanism remains mostly unknown. Here, metabolomic analysis was performed explore changes in metabolite levels P. davidiana after infestation. The data revealed that betulin is a key defensive peaches protects against and possesses...
Abstract Organic acid content in fruit is an important determinant of peach organoleptic quality, and undergoes considerable variations during development maturation. However, its molecular mechanism remains largely unclear. In this study, integrative approach genome-wide association studies comparative transcriptome analysis was applied to identify candidate genes involved organic accumulation peach. A key gene, PpTST1, encoding tonoplast sugar transporter, identified the genotype PpTST1...
Ustilaginoidea virens is a biotrophic fungal pathogen specifically colonizing rice floral organ and causes false smut disease of rice. This has emerged as serious problem that hinders the application high-yield cultivars, by reducing grain yield quality well introducing mycotoxins. However, pathogenic mechanisms U. are still enigmatic. Here we demonstrate employs secreted protein UvCBP1 to manipulate plant immunity. In planta expression led compromised chitin-induced defense responses in...
Peach (Prunus persica) landrace has typical regional characteristics, strong environmental adaptability, and contains many valuable genes that provide the foundation for breeding excellent varieties. Therefore, it is necessary to assemble genomes of specific landraces facilitate localization utilization these genes. Here, we de novo assembled a high-quality genome from an ancient blood-fleshed Chinese Tianjin ShuiMi (TJSM) originated China North Plain. The size was 243.5 Mb with contig N50...
Abstract Satsuma ( Citrus unshiu Marc.) is rich in high levels of nutrients and popular for its unique flavor, but the consumption satsuma limited by some adverse reactions human body. Previous studies have mainly focused on effects storage temperature postharvest quality satsumas, little attention has paid to effect satsumas body immunoregulation. The purpose this study was explore differences fruit quality, fruits stored at different temperatures health. Satsumas low (5.8°C, LT) room (23 ±...
