Description
Yinxin Yang and co-authors compare doubled and normal pepper plants in this 2024 study. Capsicum frutescens is a chili pepper prized for flavor and nutrition. Breeders double plant chromosomes to gain size and toughness. The team made such doubled plants with a chemical treatment. Then they compared leaves and ripe fruit at the gene and chemical level.
Hundreds of chemicals and genes differed between the two forms. The changed items clustered in one pathway that feeds both lignin and heat compounds. Upstream genes in that pathway quieted after doubling, while lignin built up. The authors link that shift to the larger fruit of doubled plants. The maps guide future pepper breeding.
