Abstract:Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is a widely cultivated crop with rich germplasm resources, holding significant nutritional value. It also serves as an important model for studying epidermal cell fate and sex determination. Cucumbers are covered with multicellular and unbranched trichomes, including a specific type called spines found on the surface of the fruit. The presence and density of these fruit spines determine the visual quality of cucumber fruits. However, the key regulatory genes and mechanisms underly… Show more
