SlMYB12 Regulates Flavonol Synthesis in Three Different Cherry Tomato Varieties

Abstract Cherry tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum M.) is considered a healthy fruit worldwide due to its wide range of nutrients. Flavonol, one of the major nutrients in cherry tomato, has antioxidant and cell-modulating properties. In this study, we showed a correlation between the expression of SlMY...
