A SNP mutation in CmYGP gene encoding Golden2-like transcription factor is responsible for melon yellow-green plant trait. Chlorophylls are essential and beneficial substances for both plant and human health. Identifying the regulatory network of chlorophyll is necessary to improve the nutritional quality of fruits. At least six etiolation genes have been identified in different melon varieties, but none of them have been cloned, and the molecular mechanisms underlying chlorophyll synthesis and chloroplast development in melon remain unclear. Here, the NSL73046, a yellow-green plant (Cmygp) mutant, enabled the map-based cloning of the first etiolation gene in melon. CmYGP encodes a Golden2-like transcription factor. Spatiotemporal expression analyses confirmed the high CmYGP expression in all green tissues, particularly in young leaves and fruit peels. Virus-induced gene silencing and the development of near-isogenic line by marker-assisted selection further confirmed that downregulation of CmYGP can reduce chloroplast number and chlorophyll content, thereby resulting in yellow-green leaves and fruits in melon, and overexpression of CmYGP in tomatoes also led to dark-green leaves and fruits. RNA-seq analysis revealed that CmYGP greatly affected the expression of key genes associated with chloroplast development. Taken together, these findings demonstrated that CmYGP regulate chlorophyll synthesis and chloroplast development thus affect fruit development in melon. This study also offers a new strategy to enhance fruit quality in melon.
