Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zj.jz000565069
• Gene Symbol: ZjALMT4
• Gene Name: Aluminum-Dependent Malate Transporter 4
• Genome:
• Species: Ziziphus jujuba

Functional Descriptions:

• Transcriptome sequencing analysis showed that the expression level of Aluminum-Dependent Malate Transporter 4 (ZjALMT4) was substantially higher in sour jujube than in jujube. Correlation analysis of mRNA abundance and fruit malate content and transient gene overexpression showed that ZjALMT4 participates in malate accumulation.
• Further sequencing analyses revealed that three genotypes of the W-box in the promoter of ZjALMT4 in sour jujube associated with malate content were detected, and the genotype associated with low malate content was fixed in jujube.
• These findings provide insights into the mechanism by which ZjALMT4 modulates malate accumulation in sour jujube and jujube.
