The pan-plastome of Prunus mume: insights into Prunus diversity, phylogeny, and domestication history [PDF]
BackgroundsPrunus mume in the Rosaceae and commonly referred to as mei or Chinese plum is widely used as a traditional ornamental flowering plant and fruit tree in China. Although some population and genetic analyses have been conducted for this species,

Functional Divergence Analysis of AGL6 Genes in Prunus mume. [PDF]
The AGAMOUS-LIKE6 (AGL6) lineage is an important clade of MADS-box transcription factors that play essential roles in floral organ development. The genome of Prunus mume contains two homoeologous AGL6 genes that are replicated as gene fragments. In this study, two AGL6 homologs, PmAGL6-1 and PmAGL6-2, were cloned from P.

The key metabolic genes and networks regulating the fruit acidity and flavonoid of Prunus mume revealed via transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses. [PDF]
The acidic taste of Mei fruit (Prunus mume) is a major contributor to its quality, but its formation mechanism remains unclear. Here, we unraveled the networks of organic acid and flavonoid metabolism in two Mei fruit.

A NAC family gene <i>PmNAC32</i> associated with photoperiod promotes flower induction in <i>Prunus mume</i>. [PDF]
The photoperiod is essential to flower induction, and the exact timing of the process can be precisely regulated based on the relative duration of light and darkness. However, the mechanisms linking photoperiod and flower induction in woody plants remain
