Abstract excerpt
Pineapple (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) is one of the most economically important tropical fruit species. The major aim of the breeding programs in several countries, including Japan, is quality improvement, mainly for the fresh market. ‘Yugafu’, a Japanese cultivar with distinctive pipe-type leaf margin phenotype and white flesh color, is popular for fresh consumption. Therefore, genome sequencing of ‘Yugafu’ is...
