A point mutation in MC06g1112 encoding FLOWERING LOCUS T decreases the first flower node in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.)

In Cucurbitaceae crops, the first flower node (FFN) is an important agronomic trait which can impact the onset of maturity, the production of female flowers, and yield. However, the gene responsible for regulating FFN in bitter gourd is unknown. Here, we used a gynoecious line (S156G) with low FFN a...
