    The karat banana belongs to the Fe'i class of bananas and is rich in various nutrients such as carotenoids, vitamin B2, vitamin B5, vitamin B6, 4'-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxyflavonoids
    .
    The karat banana genotype was identified as TTT (2n=3x=30)
    .
    On the basis of the completed genome assembly, metabolomics and transcriptomics were integrated to analyze the changes of hormones and key developmental regulatory genes at various stages of fruit development, revealing the non-climacteric fruit ripening characteristics and richness of abscisic acid-dominated karat banana fruit.
    Set the genetic basis of carotene and vitamin B2
    .
    This study provides an important data basis for the identification of specific banana germplasm resources and the cultivation of new nutrient-enhanced varieties
    .
     
    The related research results were published online in BMC Biology under the title "The Musa troglodytarum L.
    genome provides insights into the mechanism of non-climacteric behaviour and enrichment of carotenoids"
    .
    Researcher Xu Li from the Institute of Quality and Resources of the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences is the corresponding author of the paper, and researcher Li Zhiying and assistant researcher Wang Jiabin are the co-first authors
    .
    The research was supported by the National Key R&D Program, the Key R&D Program of Hainan Province, and the Fundamental Research Funds of Central Scientific Research Institutes
