Abstract:The epidermal cells of petunia flowers are the main site of volatile emission. However, data on the mechanisms underlying the release of volatiles into the environment are lacking. Here, using cell-layer-specific transcriptomic analysis, reverse genetics by VIGS and CRISPR, and metabolomics we identified EPIDERMIS VOLATILE EMISSION REGULATOR (EVER)-a petal adaxial epidermis-specific MYB activator that affects the emission of volatiles. Using a three-step viral-based CRISPR/Cas9 editing system, ever knockout li… Show more
