Article Synopsis
- Roses are important for the cut flower, medicinal, and aromatic industries but have undesirable prickles that complicate harvesting and transportation.
- Traditional breeding for prickless varieties has produced unstable mutants, so this study examines the molecular mechanisms behind prickle development in roses.
- Findings show that prickles evolve from trichomes and are linked to a network of genes involved in phenolic compound production and epidermal cell differentiation, offering insights for engineering prickless rose varieties.
