A SNP in the 4-Coumarate CoA ligase 1-likeα promoter induces juice sac granulation by promoting BR-mediated lignin synthesis in citrus.
Juice sac granulation (also known as 'Kushui'), characterized by hardening and dehydration, is a widespread physiological disorder that severely compromises fruit quality. However, the molecular mechanism and signaling pathways underlying this disorder remain largely unexplored. In this study, we identified a unique hy...
