How the Color Fades From Malus halliana Flowers: Transcriptome Sequencing and DNA Methylation Analysis

The flower color of many horticultural plants fades from red to white during the development stages, affecting ornamental value. We selected Malus halliana, a popular ornamental species, and analyzed the mechanisms of flower color fading using RNA sequencing. Forty-seven genes related to anthocyanin...
