title: Plant sample from Cerasus humilis
organism: Prunus humilis
description: Cerasus humilis, a species of Rosaceae family, originates in the north of China. C. humilis typically reaches a height of 0.3-1.0 m and has no obvious juvenile period, therefore its flowering and fruiting are expected in the second year after seed sowing. Moreover, an efficient Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation system was developed by our research team in 2016. Therefore, C. humilis has a great potential to be developed as a model plant for other species of Prunus especially when functions of fruit qualities related genes need to be verified.
