Transcriptome and Metabolome Analyses Provide Insights into the Stomium Degeneration Mechanism in Lily

Lily (<i>Lilium</i> spp.) is a widely cultivated horticultural crop that has high ornamental and commercial value but also the serious problem of pollen pollution. However, mechanisms of anther dehiscence in lily remain largely unknown. In this study, the morphological characteristics of...
