| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We attempted to quantitatively characterize the pattern of fruit shape development and to identify genetic factors contributing to that pattern, in a wide variety of persimmon cultivars.
We developed a method to quantify the pattern of fruit development by separating the principal components of complex shape of persimmon fruits, with "SHAPE" software. In the stage of fruit shape development, transcriptomic data in persimmon cultivars/segregated populations were assessed with Pearson correlation or co-expression network analyses, to identify the genetic factors associated with fruit shapes. Lastly, we found some candidate genes and potential molecular pathways which contribut to fruit shape determining in a wide variety of persimmon accessions.
