pepper(Capsicum spp.)is an important vegetable crop that provides a unique pungent sensation when *** construction of a pepper variome map,we examined the main groups that emerged during domestication and breeding of ***,their relationships and temporal succession,and the molecular events underlying the main *** results showed that the initial differentiation in fruit shape and pungency,increase in fruit weight,and transition from erect to pendent fruits,as well as the recent appearance of large,blocky,sweet fruits(bell peppers),were accompanied by strong selection/fixation of key alleles and introgressions in two large genomic ***,we identified Up,which encodes a BIG GRAIN protein involved in auxin transport,as a key domestication gene that controls erect vs pendent fruit *** up mutation gained increased expression especially in the fruit pedicel through a 579-bp sequence deletion in its 5′upstream region,resulting in the phenotype of pendent *** function of Up was confirmed by virus-induced gene *** together,these findings constitute a cornerstone for understanding the domestication and differentiation of a key horticultural crop.
