Abstract excerpt
Dwarfing cultivation is a transformative strategy in modern fruit tree management, yet the molecular underpinnings of interstock-induced dwarfism remain elusive in persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.). Here, we unveil DkMYB117, a novel R2R3-MYB transcription factor, as a key molecular switch orchestrating scion dwarfing via gibberellin (GA) catabolism. Using the dwarfing interstock "Nantongxiaofangshi," we...
