| Research Abstract |
Persimmon(Diospyros kaki L.) shows a polygamous sex expression pattern. There are three different types of individuals bearing 1) only female flowers, 2) male and female flowers, and 3) male, female, and hermaphrodite flowers. This study is conducted to elucidate the genetic control of sex determination in hexaploid persimmon using a diploid wild relative species of persimmon, D. lotus, as a model.
