Multi-omics joint analysis reveals the mechanism of flower color and fragrance variation in Lilium cernuum
Our multi-omics approach reveals that flower color loss in <i>L. cernuum</i> var. album results from synergistic effects of transcriptional regulation and metabolic flux redirection. The UFGT-mediated glycosylation defect provides a novel explanation for anthocyanin instability in white petals. These findings complement prior genetic studies and establish a framework for targeted breeding of ornamental traits in Lilium species.
