Abstract excerpt
Genetic control of fruit flesh color in watermelon is complex, and significant knowledge gaps still exist. In the present study, we investigated the genetic basis of canary-yellow flesh color in watermelon inbred line PI 635597 using a segregating population derived from a cross between PI 635597 and another inbred line, Cream of Saskatchewan (pale yellow flesh color). We showed that a single dominant gene...
