KEY MESSAGE: A SNP mutation in CmSN, encoding an EamA-like transporter, is responsible for fruit skin netting in melon. In maturing melon (Cucumis melo L.), the rind becomes reticulated or netted, a unique characteristic that dramatically changes the appearance of the fruit. However, little is known about the molecular basis of fruit skin netting formation in this important cucurbit crop. Here, we conducted...
