Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fruits play a crucial role in human diet and nutrition. Breeding scientists have been focusing on the traits and improvement of fruit quality. Fruit quality, including color, flavor, aroma, and texture, is closely related to a series of metabolic pathways in the process of fruit ripening. Therefore, studying and understanding the mechanism of quality control are critical to the improvement in fruit quality. In this Special Issue, we aim to exchange knowledge on any aspect related to the formation and regulation of fruit quality, thus providing new insights and technical reference for the high-quality breeding of fruit crops.
