Roses are one of the most important flowers applied to landscape, cut flowers, fragrance and food industries widely. As an effective method for plant reproduction, the regeneration via somatic embryos is the most promising method for breed improvement and genetic transformation of woody plants. However, lower somatic embryogenesis (SE) induction rates and genotypic constraints impede progress in genetic transformation in rose.

Article Synopsis
  • * In this study, researchers identified 25 SWEET genes in the 'Old Blush' rose, categorizing them into four subgroups and analyzing their structures and potential regulatory roles.
  • * Findings reveal significant differences in cold-response gene expression between 'Old Blush' and a more cold-resistant rose species, suggesting specific genes may play a key role in cold tolerance, laying groundwork for developing hardier rose varieties.
