Integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis reveals key pathways and metabolites underlying cold tolerance in passion fruit. (PubMed, Hortic Res) - Aug 30, 2026 - "We further validated that exogenous application of the key metabolites within these pathways, sphinganine, chlorogenic acid (CGA), rutin, and three terpenoids enhanced cold tolerance in cold-sensitive cultivars...This study provides comprehensive insights into the molecular networks underlying cold tolerance in passion fruit, highlighting potential candidate genes and metabolites. Our findings establish a crucial foundation for future molecular breeding strategies aimed at improving cold resistance in this profitable horticultural crop."
