Caption
FvJMT2 is a candidate gene for the biosynthesis of methyl benzoate and methyl cinnamate. A) Genomic region surrounding the candidate SNP SFVB2_28340942, located in the second exon of FvH4_2g39441. B) Relative accumulation of methyl benzoate and methyl cinnamate in F. vesca accessions carrying different allelic variants at SNP SFVB2_28340942. Genotypes are indicated using single-letter codes: homozygous adenosine (A; 22 accessions), homozygous cytosine (C; 151 accessions), and heterozygous (A/C; 4 accessions). Data are expressed as the log₂ ratio relative to a homogeneous control mixture composed of all analyzed samples. Asterisks denote statistically significant differences in compound accumulation (Student’s t-test, p ≤ 0.01).
C) Evolution of methyl benzoate and methyl cinnamate contents in fruit receptacles of F. vesca ‘Reine des Vallées’ across four developmental stages, including green, white, turning, and red fruits (~15, 25, 27, and 31 days post-anthesis [DPA], respectively). Data are shown as the ratio to the amount of each compound in the red ripe fruit.
