Abstract excerpt
Polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs) accumulate abundantly in mandarin fruits and confer significant health benefits. However, the genetic basis underlying this trait is largely unknown. Here, we employed 198 mandarin germplasms to reveal the genetic basis of PMF accumulation. On the basis of their genetic diversity, these mandarins were categorized into five distinct subgroups. Genomic analysis indicated that...
