Outline

Sweetness is an important agricultural trait in many fruit crops because it influences the economic value in the commercial market. This study is aimed at to understand inter-organ molecular networks that regulate fruit sweetness using muskmelon as a model. Spatio-temporal omics datasets are obtained in the agricultural field alongside fluctuating environmental information (temperature, soil water) and further integrated by bioinformatics approach to obtain scientific knowledge that is indispensable not only for future breeding of elite cultivars but also for development of intelligent cultivation system.
