Molecular Mapping and Candidate Gene Analysis for GA<sub>3</sub> Responsive Short Internode in Watermelon (<i>Citrullus lanatus</i>)

Plants with shorter internodes are suitable for high-density planting, lodging resistance and the preservation of land resources by improving yield per unit area. In this study, we identified a locus controlling the short internode trait in watermelon using Zhengzhouzigua (long internode) and Duan12...
