| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, I aimed to identify the MdMYB110a binding motif and to clarify the contribution of plant hormones in the coloration of type 2 red-fleshed apples. For the first research topic, I performed the ectopic expression of MdMYB110a protein for chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis and the reporter assay using the agroinfiltration system but failed to identify the binding motif. For the second research topic, I revealed that the coloration of type 2 red-fleshed apples is not induced by ethylene, which is known as a major plant hormone accumulating during the apple fruit maturation, but by ABA.
