Transcriptional crosstalk linking color, acidity, and aroma in peach
Color and flavor are key quality traits in fruits. Using a newly constructed peach pangenome, Chen et al. demonstrated that the PbBL gene, a known regulator of peach fruit color, also contributes to malate accumulation. This finding, along with previous studies, unveils a transcriptional mechanism that co-regulates multiple traits in peaches.
