Abstract excerpt

Ethylene is an important regulatory phytohormone for sex differentiation and flower development. As the rate-limiting enzyme encoding genes in ethylene biosynthesis, ACS gene family has been well studied in cucumber; however, little is known in other cucurbit crops, such as melon and watermelon, which show diverse sex types in the field. Here, we identified and characterized eight ACS genes each in the genomes of...
