Abstract excerpt
To explore the metabolic basis of carotenoid accumulation in different developmental periods of apricot fruits, targeted metabonomic and transcriptomic analyses were conducted in four developmental periods (S1-S4) in two cultivars (Prunus armeniaca cv. "Kuchebaixing" with white flesh and P. armeniaca cv. "Shushangganxing" with orange flesh) with different carotenoid contents. 14 types of carotenes and 27 types of...
