摘要：Citrus unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase is one of the most widely cultivated citrus varieties on Jeju Island in Republic of Korea. Mutation breeding is a useful tool for inducing genetic diversity by causing genomic mutations in a short period of time. We previously conducted mutation breeding using gamma irradiation to develop new varieties of C. unshiu. Here, we describe one of these varieties, Yein-early, which has a redder peel, greater hardness, and higher sugar content compared with the wild type (WT). Yein-early leaves also showed a unique phenotype compared with the WT, characterized by longer longitudinal length, shorter transverse length, stronger curling, and longer petiole length. Genome resequencing of Yein-early and the WT uncovered significant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and insertions/deletions (InDels). These variations were crucial in identifying molecular markers unique to Yein-early. In addition, we developed an allele-specific PCR marker specifically targeting a homozygous SNP in Yein-early that distinguishes it from the WT and other citrus varieties. This study contributes to the understanding of pigment synthesis in fruits and provides a valuable tool for selection of the novel Yein-early variety in citrus breeding programs.
