Abstract:The concave shape of the fruit tip in pepper plants is highly susceptible to drought and low temperature stresses, resulting in the appearance of a pointed tip fruit, which affects its commercial value. However, few studies on the process of fruit tip development and regulatory genes in pepper have been reported. Herein, the developmental process of the ovary before flowering, especially changes in the shape of the ovary tip, was studied in detail. The results showed that the final fruit tip shape was consiste… Show more
