ClaPEPCK4: target gene for breeding innovative watermelon germplasm with low malic acid and high sweetness

Malic acid markedly affects watermelon flavor. Reducing the malic acid content can significantly increase the sweetness of watermelon. An effective solution strategy is to reduce watermelon malic acid content through molecular breeding technology. In this study, we measured the TSS and pH of six wat...
