| Outline of Research at the Start |
一般的なナスにはない果実の多汁性と歯切れの良い食感を併せ持つ大阪の地域特産野菜「水ナス」を研究素材とし、ナスの食感に関わる組織・細胞構造および成分組成と、その形質を決定する遺伝子領域を明らかにすることで、新たな品種の育成等に貢献することを目指している。

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to obtain knowledge on the fruit characteristics of Mizunasu, which is characterized by its high juiciness and crisp texture, we conducted research using the cross-fertilized generation. Genetic analysis using the F2 generation identified single or multiple loci related to high juiciness, flesh and pericarp firmness, and fruit specific gravity. In particular, the locus on chromosome 9 was detected in all traits and was considered to be an important locus. Further detailed genetic analysis showed that the candidate region for the locus was about 1.4 Mb. As for mouthfeel, analysis of the F3 generation showed that in addition to the loci found in F2, other new loci might be involved. No correlation was found between flesh cell structure and juiciness, or between arginine content and, which was considered to be higher in Mizunasu than in other varieties, and high juiciness.
