The CmMYB6-CmWRKY13-CmBr module mediates cucurbitacin B accumulation in melon fruit under CPPU treatment.
Cucurbitacin B (CuB), a key compound responsible for the bitterness of melon fruit, significantly reduces fruit quality and consumer acceptance. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism underlying CuB biosynthesis is essential for improving melon fruit quality. In this research, we investigated CuB levels in th...
