Purple to White, Smooth to Prickly: Genetic Diversity of Eggplants Recorded for the First Time
Findings pave the way for more robust, climate-adapted, and high-quality varieties
It’s purple, sometimes white, sometimes prickly – and it has many different forms: the eggplant (also known as the aubergine). For the very first time, researchers have created a complete catalogue of genes and traits of the eggplant. Their findings pave the way for more robust, climate-adapted, ...
