摘要: Understanding the global transcriptomic and metabolic changes during mulberry growth and development is essential for the enhancing fruit quality and optimizing breeding strategies. By integrating phenotypic, metabolomic, and transcriptomic data across 18 developmental and ripening stages of Da10 mulberry fruit, a global map of gene expression and metabolic changes was generated. Analysis revealed a gradual progression of morphological, metabolic, and transcriptional changes throughout the development and ripening phases. In this study, a new transcriptome transition, which was highly related to stress resistance, was observed after the full ripening stage. Moreover, a novel method was devised by integrating metabolome and phenotypic data to assess fruit quality and determine optimal harvest times early in the supply chain. Phase-specific co-expression networks involved in photosynthesis, quality regulation, and plant immunity were also constructed. Notably, eight flavonoids and six hub genes emerged as potential natural edible coatings or gene-editing targets for mulberry fruit to enhance resistance against biotic and abiotic stress. These findings should facilitate further research on stress resistance, post-harvest management, and sustainable agricultural development.
