Construction of a co-expression network and mining of core genes for genic male sterility in sweet pepper based on transcriptome and WGCNA analysis
This research provides a theoretical foundation for elucidating the molecular mechanisms of genic male sterility in sweet pepper and lays the groundwork for expanding fertility gene resources and advancing hybrid breeding efforts in this important crop.
